Stable labelling of serum albumin microspheres with gallium-68.
A highly efficient and rapid technique for labelling serum albumin microspheres with 68Ga is described. Measurements of the in vivo stability of the radiopharmaceutical in the rabbit and the baboon show that less than 0.2% of the injected activity is eluted from the microspheres in 2 h.
