| Bioactivity | DOTA-NHS-ester is a linker for affibody molecules and is applied in small animals PET, SPECT, and CT. DOTA-NHS-ester can be used to label radiotherapeutic agents or imaging probes for the detection of tumors[1]. |
| Invitro | DOTA-NHS-ester can be used to modify human serum albumin (HSA) to produce DOTA-HSA. And DOTA-HSA is furtherly modified by Sulfo-SMCC (HY-D0975) to obtain DOTA-HSA-SMCC. DOTA-HSA-SMCC is conjugated to ZHER2:342 and the final product is DOTA-HSA-ZHER2:342[1]. In a cell uptake assay, DOTA-HSA-ZHER2:342 is labeled by 64Cu, 64Cu-DOTA-HSA-ZHER2:342 (0.5-2 hours) slowly accumulates in the SKOV3 cells and reaches 0.71% of the applied activity at 0.5 h and the uptake increased to 1.58% at 2 h[1]. |
