Radioimmunoassay of progesterone and estriol in plasma using antibodies immobilized onto protein A-sepharose CL-4B

Protein A-Sepharose CL-4B was used as a solid phase for antibodies in the radioimmunoassay of progesterone and estriol. The method was fast and easily standardizable. Immobilized antibodies had the same binding capacity as free antibodies and gave good correlation curves (r = 0.996 for progesterone andr = 0.989 for estriol). Sensitivity was 12.5 pg/tube for progesterone and 8.0 pg/tube for estriol. Comparison of progesterone radioimmunoassay with chemically immobilized antibody onto Sepharose CL-4B was also carried out.     

Development and Validation of an Analytical HPLC Method to Assess Chemical and Radiochemical Purity of [68Ga]Ga-NODAGA-Exendin-4 Produced by a Fully Automated Method

Background: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) is preferentially expressed in pancreatic islets, especially in β-cells, and highly expressed in human insulinomas and gastrinomas. In recent years several GLP-1R–avid radioligands have been developed to image insulin-secreting tumors or to provide a tentative quantitative in vivo biomarker of pancreatic β-cell mass. Exendin-4, a 39-amino acid peptide with high binding affinity to GLP-1R, has been labeled with Ga-68 for imaging with positron emission tomography (PET). Preparation conditions may influence the quality and in vivo behavior of tracers. Starting from a published synthesis and quality controls (QCs) procedure, we have developed and validated a new rapid and simple UV-Radio-HPLC method to test the chemical and radiochemical purity of [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4, to be used in the clinical routine. Methods: Ga-68 was obtained from a ⁶⁸Ge/⁶⁸Ga Generator (GalliaPharma^®) and purified using a cationic-exchange cartridge on an automated synthesis module (Scintomics GRP^®). NODAGA-exendin-4 contained in the reactor (10 µg) was reconstituted with HEPES and ascorbic acid. The reaction mixture was incubated at 100 °C. The product was purified through HLB cartridge, diluted, and sterilized. To validate the proposed UV-Radio-HPLC method, a stepwise approach was used, as defined in the guidance document released by the International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH), adopted by the European Medicines Agency (CMP/ICH/381/95 2014). The assessed parameters are specificity, linearity, precision (repeatability), accuracy, and limit of quantification. Therefore, a range of concentrations of Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4, NODAGA-exendin-4 (5, 4, 3.125, 1.25, 1, and 0.75 μg/mL) and [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 were analyzed. To validate the entire production process, three consecutive batches of [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 were tested. Results: Excellent linearity was found between 5–0.75 μg/mL for both the analytes (NODAGA-exendin-4 and ⁶⁸Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4), with a correlation coefficient (R²) for calibration curves equal to 0.999, average coefficients of variation (CV%) < 2% (0.45% and 0.39%) and average per cent deviation value of bias from 100%, of 0.06% and 0.04%, respectively. The calibration curve for the determination of [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 was linear with a R² of 0.993 and CV% < 2% (1.97%), in accordance to acceptance criteria. The intra-day and inter-day precision of our method was statistically confirmed using 10 μg of peptide. The mean radiochemical yield was 45 ± 2.4% in all the three validation batches of [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4. The radiochemical purity of [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 was >95% (97.05%, 95.75% and 96.15%) in all the three batches. Conclusions: The developed UV-Radio-HPLC method to assess the radiochemical and chemical purity of [⁶⁸Ga]Ga-NODAGA-exendin-4 is rapid, accurate and reproducible like its fully automated production. It allows the routine use of this PET tracer as a diagnostic tool for PET imaging of GLP-1R expression in vivo, ensuring patient safety.

Chromatographic Purification of Tritiated Steroids Prior to Use in Radioimmunoassay

Abstract

The purity of tritiated steroids used as reagents in radio immunoassay plays an important role in the reliability of the assay. These radioactive reagents should be assessed for purity upon receipt and the purity should be checked periodically afterward. For such purposes, we have used chromatographic purification on Celite microcolumns. By charging the polarity of the stationary and mobile phases, 20 different tritiated steroids with a wide range of polarity could be purified on these microcolumns. This approach is easy, rapid, economical, and reliable.

The Simultaneous Determination of Ruthenium and Osmium by A Radiochemical Method

Abstract

A simple radiometric procedure is proposed for the determination of raicrogram amounts of ruthenium and osmium by the use of neutron activation. Alter irradiation, the tetroxides of both metals were collectively distilled and then determined directly by measuring the photopeak areas of osmium-191 and ruthenium-103 at 45 and 498 Kev respectively. The effect of Compton continua was negligible.     

A Validated Chiral LC Method for the Determination of Enantiomeric Purity of Pemetrexed Disodium on an Amylose-Based Chiral Stationary Phase

A simple and new isocratic normal phase chiral HPLC method has been developed for the determination of enantiomeric purity of pemetrexed disodium (l-enantiomer) in bulk drugs with a short run time of about 20 min. Chromatographic separation of l and d-enantiomers of pemetrexed disodium was achieved on an amylose based chiral stationary phase using a mobile phase consists of hexane, ethanol and trifluoro acetic acid. The resolution between the enantiomers was found to be more than 2.0. The system precision and method precision were found to be within 5% RSD for the distomer (d-enantiomer) at its specification level (i.e. not more than 1.0% w/w). The limit of detection and limit of quantification of distomer were 1.6 and 5 μg mL⁻¹, respectively for 10 μL injection volume. The percentage recovery of distomer was ranged from 90.6 to 105.7 in bulk drug samples. The test solution was found to be stable in the diluent for 48 h. The method was found to be specific for the enantiomers of pemetrexed disodium and can be conveniently used for the quantification of undesired d-enantiomer present in the bulk drug samples of pemetrexed disodium.

Radiochemical Feasibility of Mixing of 99mTc-MAA and 90Y-Microspheres with Omnipaque Contrast

Yttrium-90 (⁹⁰Y) microspheres are widely used for the treatment of liver-dominant malignant tumors. They are infused via catheter into the hepatic artery branches supplying the tumor under fluoroscopic guidance based on pre-therapy angiography and Technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin (^99mTc-MAA) planning. However, at present, these microspheres are suspended in radiolucent media such as dextrose 5% (D5) solution. In order to monitor the real-time implantation of the microspheres into the tumor, the ⁹⁰Y microspheres could be suspended in omnipaque contrast for allowing visualization of the correct distribution of the microspheres into the tumor. The radiochemical purity of mixing ⁹⁰Y-microspheres in various concentrations of omnipaque was investigated. The radiochemical purity and feasibility of mixing ^99mTc-MAA with various concentrations of a standard contrast agent were also investigated. Results showed the radiochemical feasibility of mixing ⁹⁰Y-microspheres with omnipaque is radiochemically acceptable for allowing real-time visualization of radioembolization under fluoroscopy.     

Application Of Fluorescamine Xiv1. Determination Of Optical Purity Of A Small Amount Of Amino Acids By The Fluorescamine Method

Abstract

A new simple and fast micro method has been established to determine the optical purity of a small amount of amino acids (0.1–1 μg/ml). The amino acids react readily with fluorescamine to form pyrrolinone-type chromophores, which show strong CD bands at 400–300 nm and much larger optical rotation than the free amino acids in the visible spectral range.
