Abstract

Labelling kinetic studies, radiochemical characterization and particle size evaluation of technetium-99m rhenium sulfide colloid using formamidine sulfinic acid as reducing agent are described. Comparison with the same colloid which makes use of Sn-sodium pyrophosphate complex as reducing agent has shown higher labelling yields, simplification of labelling procedure and a longer shelf life when formamidine sulfinic acid is used.
