Funded Activity Summary

Site-specific modification of proteins with radioactive technetium. This project aims to produce homogeneous and fully functional constructs that may be used as imaging agents. Most techniques for incorporating radioactive isotopes into proteins adversely influence biological behaviour and the quality of the image. This project will develop technology for the benign modification of proteins with the radioactive isotope technetium for nuclear imaging. Development of the fundamental chemistry in this project may lead to future applications in imaging and therapy. Creation of intellectual property could lead to joint ventures with hospitals and industry.
