Abstract

The aim of our work was to develop a generally applicable liquid chromatographic method for the determination of the residue free 68Ga3+ content of labeling reaction mixtures, in order to facilitate comparative labeling experiments in the early stages of chelator development. We achieved the retention of free 68Ga3+ on a mixed mode cation exchanger HPLC column with a gradient program, which allowed the separation from the non-retained complexes. The effects of reaction conditions (time, temperature) and the application of non-coordinating buffers were examined. Furthermore, recovery of free 68Ga3+ and these complexes were investigated, values of which were 94.9–97.4% and 87.4–99.6%.
