title: Comparison of 99mTc-mercaptoacetyltriglycine and [131I]-o-iodohippurate elimination in perfused rat kidney.
abstract: Renal elimination of two renal radiodiagnostic agents, (99m)Tc-mercaptoacetyltriglycine ((99m)Tc-MAG3) and [(131)I]-o-iodohippurate (OIH) has been studied using the method of the perfused rat kidney. The experiments showed significant differences between renal handling of (99m)Tc-MAG3 and OIH in the perfused rat kidney. While the renal clearance for (99m)Tc-MAG3 was relatively stable, the renal clearance values of OIH rapidly decreased after the OIH administration in a bolus dose. The infusion administration of OIH resulted in stable clearance values during the perfusion. The OIH/(99m)Tc-MAG3 renal clearance ratio was 2.47. Both compounds were bound to proteins in the perfusate to a considerable extent. An analysis of renal handling showed that contribution of tubular secretion to the total excretion was 95% for OIH, and 97% for (99m)Tc-MAG3.
