Abstract
186Re is considered as “Therapy” Isotope and can be used in radioimmunotherapy. The radiation characteristics of this isotope are ideal for therapy. Generally metallic radionuclides are labeled to antibodies through bifunctional chelating agents, such as DTPA (diethylenetetraaminepentaacetic acid). A study has been carried out on the complexation of DTPA with186Re using low specific activity186Re. This was carried out to evaluate various parameters which are involved in the complex formation including methods of processing of raw material186Re. Stannous chloride was used as the reducing agent for the reduction of rhenium. Different labeling conditions such as pH, time, temperature and concentration of reducing agent were all studied for complex formation. The complex was characterized by paper electrophoresis, paper chromatography and gel column chromatography.
