Description

An adopted method for the preparation of high radiochemical purify 125I -atenolol was investigated. Direct radioiodination of atenolol was carried out using N-bromo succinamide or hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent. The reaction proceeds well within 30 min at room temperature of 25 ± 1 degree C and afforded a radiochemical yield up to 97 % as pure as '125I -atenolol. Different chromatographic techniques (electrophoresis, TLC and HPLC) were used to determine the radiochemical yield and purity of the labeled product
