Design of radiochemical laboratories for use in pharmaceutical research
Description
During the development of new drugs extensive use is made of labelled compounds to study their absorption, distribution and metabolism. At the Wellcome Research Laboratories, these novel compounds are synthesised in a radiochemical facility that has been incorporated into a modern purpose built medicinal chemistry building. The facility has an area of approximately 10 m2 and consists of a large laboratory with controlled access and a separate office suite. It has been designed to safely handle up to 9.25 GBq of 14C labelled compound per synthesis and to comply with the UK Ionising Radiations regulations 1985. Five syntheses can be carried out at any one time
