Interaction of some sterilizing filter materials with some technetium-99m radiopharmaceuticals.
The retention of a variety of 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals on four different sterilizing filter membranes has been evaluated. It was demonstrated that some 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals show significant retention of certain types of sterilizing filters, presumably due to interactions between the radiopharmaceutical and the filter material.
