Cancer detection in early stage using a powerful and noninvasive tool is of high global interest. In this experiment, a small-molecular-weight glucose based derivative of Gd3+-1-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl) diethylene tri amine penta acetic acid (Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG) as a novel potential MR imaging contrast agents was synthesized. Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG was synthesized with reacting of Glucosamine...

This report summarises national passive surveillance data collated in the Adverse Drug Reactions Advisory Committee (ADRAC) database at 30 September 2006 for adverse events following immunisation (AEFI) reported for children aged less than 7 years who received vaccines between 1 January and 30 June 2006.1–3 It is the fi rst full reporting period for AEFI data following the introduction of a new...

Recombinant anti‑epidermal growth factor receptor‑internalizing arginine‑glycine‑aspartic acid (anti‑EGFR single‑domain antibody fused with iRGD peptide) protein efficiently targets the EGFR extracellular domain and integrin αvβ/β5, and shows a high penetration into cells. Thus, this protein may improve penetration of conjugated drugs into the deep zone of gastric cancer multicellular 3D sphero...

the aim of present study was to investigate phytoremediation potential of puccinellia distans (jacq) parl using edta and dtpa and method of decreasing cd- chelating leacing risk. the soil samples spiked with cdcl2. the treatments comprised the following dosages 2.5dtpa, 5dtpa, 2.5edta, 5edta, 2.5edta+2.5dtpa, 2.5edta+5dtpa, 5edta+2.5dtpa, 5edta+5dtpa and control pots were not treated with edta ...

The synthesis and characterization of two novel DTPA bisamide derivatives DTPA-BC12PheA and DTPA-BC14PheA functionalized with p-dodecylaniline and p-tetradecylaniline are described. The ligands were coordinated to Gd(iii) and Eu(iii), resulting in highly paramagnetic and luminescent complexes, respectively. Mixed micelles consisting of Gd/Eu-DTPA-BC12PheA and DTPA-BC14PheA with a homogeneous si...

OBJECTIVES To examine the contents of intraosseous cysts in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) through the signal intensity characteristics on gadolinium-DTPA (Gd-DTPA) enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS The hand or foot joints of nine patients with the cystic form of RA (where the initial radiological abnormality consisted of intraosseous cysts without erosions) were imaged be...

OBJECTIVES The objectives of the study were to assess the imaging features of hypovascular borderline lesions containing hypervascular foci on gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to evaluate the ability of Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI to diagnose high-risk borderline lesions possibly consistent with early hepatocell...
