摘要
C-11-alpha-methyl-L-tryptophan ([C-11]AMT), a tryptophan metabolism PET tracer, has successfully been employed for brain serotonin pathway and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) pathway related tumor imaging. We here report a reliable, automated procedure for routine synthesis of [C-11]AMT based on an Eckert and Ziegler Modular-Lab system. The semi-preparative HPLC was incorporated into the system to improve chemical purity and specific activity. The 6-step radiosynthesis followed by HPLC-purification provided [(11)]AMT in 53 +/- 1.2% (n = 6, non-decay-corrected) overall radiochemical yield with radiochemical purity >99% and specific activity of 35-116 GBq/mu mol. Usually, 2.95 +/- 0.65 GBq (n = 6, EOS) patient ready dose was produced from about 55.5 GBq [C-11]CO2 in 50 min. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
