Rapid Radiolabeling for Peptide Radiotracers

Methods Mol Biol. 2024:2729:103-115. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-3499-8_7.

Abstract

Peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals (PRPs) have been developed and introduced into research and clinic diagnostic imaging and targeted radionuclide therapy for more than two decades. In order to efficiently prepare PRPs, some rapid radiolabeling methods have been demonstrated. This chapter presents six common approaches for PRPs radiolabeling with metallic radioisotopes and Fluorine-18.

Keywords: Fluorine-18; Metallic radioisotopes; Peptide; Peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals; Radiochemistry; Radiolabeling.
