Direct reactions of the MRI contrast agent K2[Gd(DTPA)(H2O)]·5H2O (1) (H5DTPA = diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) with dipotassium hydrogen phosphate (K2HPO4) or phosphite (K2HPO3) result in the isolation of well-defined Gd-DTPA phosphite K6[Gd2(DTPA)2(HPO3)]·7H2O (2) or phosphate K6[Gd2(DTPA)2(HPO4)]·10H2O (3), respectively. Their lanthanum analogs K4[La2(DTPA)2(H2O)]·8H2O (4), K6[La2(DTPA)2...

PURPOSE The feasibility of measuring blood-brain barrier permeability was studied in a 36B-10 brain glioma model in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS In stage I of our study, sequential MR images of glioma-implanted rats were obtained following intravenous administration of three contrast agents of different molecular sizes--Gd-DTPA, polylysine-(Gd-DTPA), and albumin-(Gd-DTPA). In a second set of e...

A chelating agent helps crops to reuse as nutrients by mobilizing salts from the soil. This study was conducted evaluate effects of Diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA), N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-ethylene diaminetriacetic (HEDTA), and Ethylene diamine disuccininc (EDDS) for improving plant growth reusing accumulated in soils plastic film house. Two experiments were carried out follows: i) For in...

The present investigation was undertaken to study the kinetics of 99mTc-labelled diethylenetriaminepenta-acetate (DTPA) as compared with inulin and 51Cr-labelled ethylenediaminetetra-acetate (EDTA). Twenty patients with various degrees of decreased renal function were studied. The renal clearance, plasma clearance and volume of distribution of all three tracers were measured after a simultaneou...

The objective of this study was to design and prepare a new contrast agent of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for the evaluation of therapeutic angiogenesis. Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) residue of a chelator was chemically introduced to dextran with a molecular weight of 74,000 (dextran-DTPA). Cyclic peptide containing an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence (cyclic RGD) ...

Determination of creatinine clearance (Ccr) is not a reliable indicator of glomerular filtration rate (GFR), owing to tubular secretion of creatinine. It has been reported that Ccr measurements can approximate true GFR after cimetidine (Ci) administration. In this study, GFR was estimated by Cockcroft and Gault's equation (C(C-G)) based on measurement of plasma creatinine, and Ccr was determine...

INTRODUCTION Children in Singapore receive vaccination against hepatitis B virus (HBV) at 0, 1 and 5 or 6 months of age, and vaccination against pertussis, diphtheria, tetanus, and polio at 3, 4 and 5 months of age. Parents often choose to vaccinate with the combined acellular-pertussis-inactivated polio-Hib vaccine (DTPa-IPV/Hib). We investigated whether a combined hexavalent vaccine, DTPa-HBV...
