Towards the development of new subtype-specific muscarinic receptor radiopharmaceuticals-radiosynthesis and ex vivo biodistribution of [18F] 3-(4-(2-(2-(2-fluoroethoxy) ethoxy) ethylthio)-1, 2, 5-thiadiazol-3-yl)-1-methyl-1, 2, 5, 6-tetrahydropyridine [PDF]
Muscarinic receptors have been implicated in neurological disorders including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and schizophrenia. Nineteen derivatives of thiadiazolyltetrahydropyridine (TZTP), a core that has previously shown high affinities ...

Molecular Imaging of Microglial Activation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [PDF]
There is growing evidence of activated microglia and inflammatory processes in the cerebral cortex in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Activated microglia is characterized by increased expression of the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) in the brain

18FDG production in a PET imaging using a proton flux produced by D-D fusion reaction
Fluorine 18-deoxyglucose (18FDG) is often used in Positron Emission Tomography (PET). PET imaging is one of the useful tool which is used to cancer detection and management. PET growth is limited due to problems that depend on the production of Fluorine-

Optimization of Automated Solid Phase Extraction-based Synthesis of [18F]Fluorocholine
[18F]Fluorocholine is a radiopharmaceutical used non-invasively in positron emission tomography to diagnose parathyroid adenoma, prostate cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma by evaluating the choline metabolism. In this study, a radiolabeling method for

Hydrostatic bearings excel in high‐precision applications, but their performance hinges on a continuous external supply. This study evaluates various material combinations for sliding surfaces to mitigate damage during supply failures or misalignment and to discover the most effective materials identified for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of
