Overview

The carbon and hydrogen in the compound can be replaced by [14C] and [3H] without changing compounds’ chemical characteristics. Therefore, the chemical and physical properties of compounds labeled with [14C] and [3H] are very similar to those of the unlabeled counterparts. This method has been used in a wide range of applications, especially in the life sciences, including research and development of human and animal pharmaceuticals.

Our team of radiochemists is proficient in developing efficient radiosynthesis routes that can provide a variety of feasible options for the labeling positions of compounds, and provide professional advice, based on in vitro and in vivo metabolic data of compounds.

Case Study

    • Rectangle 346241541.jpg

      According to literature reports1, compound BI665915 is a novel selective 5-lipoxyylage activating protein (FLAP) inhibitor. It is better choice to incorporate carbon-14 atom on 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring. As shown as the hot synthesis route, it was successful to the synthesis of carbon-14 labelled compound BI665915 with the starting commercial material potassium cyanide [14C].

FAQs

  • What are the criteria of radiolabeled compound purity?

    For preclinical studies, the purity is recommended to be >95%, and single impurity<1%.

    For clinical studies, the purity is recommended to be >98%, and single impurity<1%.

  • What is the regular SA of 14C-labeled compound?

    SA is the abbreviation of special activity. The common unit is mCi/mmol. The maximum achievable specific activity for single 14C-labeled organic compound is 62.4 mCi/ mmol. In fact, the specific activity of the synthesized in 14C-labeled compound is a little lower. It is usually between 40 and 50 mCi/mmol.

  • Do you have experience in global shipping?

    Yes, WuXi AppTec has extensive experience in shipping radioactive materials globally, including to North America, Europe, the Asia-Pacific region, and other countries and regions around the world.
