ABSTRACT
Objective:To automatically synthesize Al 18F-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI)-74, and explore its value of clinical application. Methods:Al 18F-FAPI-74 was synthesized automatically by the commercial synthesis module CFN-MPS-100, and its yield, radiochemical purity and stability were determined. Sixteen normal Kunming (KM) mice were randomly divided into 4 groups and euthanized at 10, 30, 60 and 90 min after Al 18F-FAPI-74 injection, and the biodistribution was measured. MicroPET/CT dynamic scanning (60 min) was performed in 5 rat pancreatic tumor-bearing BALB/c nude mice to observe the tumor uptake. Al 18F-FAPI-74 PET/CT imaging was performed on 3 volunteers (1 male, 2 females; age: 37, 41, 43 years) to evaluate the clinical application value of Al 18F-FAPI-74. Results:The automated synthesis time of Al 18F-FAPI-74 was about 35 min, with the synthesis yield of (21.34±3.86)% (without attenuation correction, n=5) and the radiochemical purity more than 99%. The radiochemical purity was still more than 96% after placement at 37 ℃ for 6 h. Biodistribution in normal mice and microPET/CT dynamic scanning in tumor-bearing nude mice showed that consistently high uptake in the kidneys and bladder, and the tumor uptake was the highest at 20 min, and the maximum tumor-to-muscle ratio was 3.16±0.01 at 60 min. PET/CT imaging on volunteers showed that there was a small amount of uptake in myocardium, most organs such as the liver and lung had background uptake, and the maximum SUV max of persistent high uptake of tumor was 17.08. Conclusions:Al 18F-FAPI-74 has the advantages of simple synthesis, high yield, stable quality and good imaging performance in mice and volunteers. It is a kind of imaging agent that meets the requirements of clinical diagnosis.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To observe and compare the application result of two kinds of chemical indicator(CI)card contained in high pressure-steam sterilization chemical monitoring testing package for providing correct credible evidence of supplying material in each batch after high pressure-steam sterilization and to avoid resource lost because of fault estimation.METHODS The chemical monitoring testing package was made according Sterilization Criteria published in 2002,with the 3M 1250 and 1243 CI cards and 1292 biology indicator(BI) to observe the results in tested package after sterilization.RESULTS The BI in chemical monitoring testing package was all qualified,the qualified rate of 1250 was 70%,while of 1243 was 100%.CONCLUSIONS If there is no BI for monitoring,1243 CI card should be chosen in high pressure-steam sterilization chemical monitoring testing package for supplying material in each batch after high pressure-steam sterilization which is not influenced by moisture and the contacted material and is easy to read and evaluate,the resource lost caused by fault estimation can be avoided.
