Summary for Patent: 9,439,985
Title:Compositions for radiolabeling diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA)-dextran
Abstract: The subject invention relates to the compositions for radiolabeling Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic Acid (DTPA)-dextran with Technetium-99m and for stabilizing the DTPA-dextran Cold Kit. The composition contains Stannous Chloride ions to reduce .sup.99mTc-pertechnetate, Ascorbic Acid to reduce stannic ions to stannous ions to maintain a reducing environment, .alpha.,.alpha.-Trehalose to add bulk and to stabilize the lyophilized composition without interfering with the radiochemical yield, and Glycine to transchelate Technetium-99m under highly acidic conditions to facilitate radiolabeling DTPA-dextran with high radiochemical purity. In addition, the invention pertains to methods for making and using the compositions. The reconstitution of the lyophilized composition by .sup.99mTc-pertechnetate, resulting in radiolabeled .sup.99mTc-DTPA-dextran in a composition between pH 3 to 4. This invention contains a Diluent vial, which when used will shift the pH to a moderately acidic pH, which would provide less pain on injection and ease-of-use to clinical practioners for adjusting its potency.
