Captive solvent [11C]acetate synthesis in GMP conditions.
Reliable procedure for the production of 1-[(11)C]acetate in GMP conditions was developed based on a combination of the captive-solvent Grignard reaction conducted in the sterile catheter followed by the convenient solid-phase extraction purification on a series of ion-exchange cartridges. The described procedure proved to be reliable in more than 30 patient productions. The process provides stable radiochemical yields (65% EOB) of sodium acetate (1-[(11)C]) of the Ph.Eur. quality (radiochemical purity better than 95%) in a short time (5 min).
