Journal ArticleDOI

Antibodies against metal chelates

TL;DR: These antibodies show a remarkable preference for indium chelates; changing to another metal such as scandium or gallium can decrease the antibody-binding constant by more than three orders of magnitude, which introduces a new degree of control over the biological distributions of chelated radionuclides.
Journal Article

Pre-targeted immunoscintigraphy of murine tumors with indium-111-labeled bifunctional haptens.

TL;DR: A method of tumor imaging utilizing the nonspecific accumulation of antibody through leaky capillaries is described, in which the antibody and the radiolabel are administered separately.
Journal ArticleDOI

Copper chelates as probes of biological systems: Stable copper complexes with a macrocyclic bifunctional chelating agent

TL;DR: The synthesis of a new "bifunctional" metal chelator, 6(p-bromoacetamidobenzyl)-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane- N,N',N",N"' -Tetraacetic acid, which can be covalently attached to proteins and which binds copper stably in human serum under physiological conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The peptide way to macrocyclic bifunctional chelating agents: synthesis of 2-(p-nitrobenzyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N",N'''-tetraacetic acid and study of its yttrium(III) complex.

TL;DR: A new synthetic route to these macrocycles via peptide synthesis and intramolecular tosylamide ring closure is developed, performed in very dilute solution, eliminating concerns about polymer formation.
