Investigating the bifunctional chelate approach for radiopharmaceutical development
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
for in vivo imaging of GRP receptor positive tumors. A series of peptides that differed in their C-terminal ends or 6th position amino acid, were synthesized and coupled to the chelate, 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA...
Structure-activity relationship of octreotide analogues labeled with rhenium and technetium-99m
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
The goal of this research is to cyclize octreotide analogues with ⁹⁹[supersript-m]Tc and ¹⁸⁶/¹⁸⁸Re radiometals to be used as diagnostic and therapeutic agents for neuroendocrine tumors, respectively. Several series of octreotide analogues...
Synthesis and evaluation of [105]Rhodium (III) complexes of phosphine chelate systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
. Chelate systems comprised of tertiary phosphines may serve as internal reducing agents, thus limiting the amount of ethanol and decreasing the temperatures required for labeling [superscript 105]RH. The chelate systems PS2, P2N2, and P2S2 have been...
Pertechnetate immobilization with sulfide in aqueous media under anaerobic and aerobic environments
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Technetium-99 (Tc-99) is a high yield radionuclide produced from thermal neutron fission. As a consequence of the development of nuclear weapons over ...
Prospective radiolabled bombesin conjugates for prostate cancer imaging and therapeutic agents
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
An active area of prostate cancer research is in the synthesis of radiolabeled peptides for in vivo tumor imaging or therapy. This method is possible since specific receptors are expressed in high concentration on certain ...
Selection of small pretargeting peptides with affinity for radiochelates and separation and purification of radiolanthanides
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
on cysteine reacts with the reactive electrophilic group conjugated to the 1, 4, 7, 10- tetraazacyclododecane N, N', N'', N''', N'''' -tertraacetic acid (DOTA) chelate. Upon selection of peptides with affinity for the radiochelates, the antibody...
Phosphinimines as potential technetium environmental sensors
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
-napthyl)Ph₂P=NSiMe₃ include possible reporter groups and (p-COOMe)C₆H₄Ph₂P=NSiMe₃ contains a linking moiety for incorporating reporter groups or attaching the phosphinimine to a polymer support. The use of internal and external reporter groups to generate...
Radioactive Au for potential radiotherapeutic application
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Radioactive gold-198/199 can be used in therapeutic radiopharmaceutical agents to combat cancer. In this thesis, two projects involving the development of radioactive gold-198/199 are described. The first project discusses ...
Rhenium complexes with O, N, S ligands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The main focus of this thesis is the synthesis and characterization of nonradioactive rhenium complexes containing O, N, S ligands. Chapter 2 describes the rhenium labeling of four somatostatin analogues. Confirmation for ...
Radionuclide production and separation techniques for radiopharmaceutical development and nuclear waste processing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] With increasing cancer incident rates and advancements in nuclear medicine, the demand for optimizing pathways to produce radionuclides or investigating ...
