Formation and in-vivo-distribution of different 99mTc-Sn-pyrophosphate complexes.
The formation of two different 99mTc-Sn-pyrophosphate complexes was determined by evaluation of their in vivo distribution in rats. It was found that formation of a 2 : 2 Sn : PyP complex, which is bone seeking, is depending as well on the pyrophosphate as on the hydrogen ion concentration in the equilibrium. On the contrary, formation of a 2 : 1 Sn : PyP complex, which shows no bone affinity but concentrate in the kidneys, is hydrogen ion independent and occurs even at very low pyrophosphate concentrations. The probable structure of these complexes is discussed.
