Pertechnetate release from a water/oil microemulsion and an aqueous solution after subcutaneous injection in rabbits.
A water-oil microemulsion and an aqueous solution, both carrying pertechnetate, were injected subcutaneously in rabbits; release was observed by imaging the administration sites with a gamma-camera. Disappearance from the injection site of pertechnetate in aqueous solution was about ten times faster than that of pertechnetate in a microemulsion.
