Whole Body PET Imaging with a Norepinephrine Transporter Probe 4-[ 18 F]Fluorobenzylguanidine: Biodistribution and Radiation DosimetryAbstractPurpose4-[18F]Fluorobenzylguanidine ([18F]PFBG) is a positron emission tomography (PET) probe for non-invasive targeting of the norepinephrine transporter. The aim of this study was to assess uptake and distribution characteristics of this PET probe.ProceduresThree cynomolgus monkeys were injected with 269 ± 51 MBq (7.3 ± 1.4 mCi) of [18F]PFBG and 21 whole...
Screening of textile finishing agents available on the Chinese market: An important source of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances to the environmentAbstractOrganofluorinated surfactants are widely employed in textile finishing agents (TFAs) to achieve oil, water, and stain repellency. This has been regarded as an important emission source of per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) to the environment. China is the biggest manufacturer of clothes, and thus TFA production is also a relevant industrial...
Synthesis of silver nanoparticles and its contribution to the capability of Bacillus subtilis to deal with polluted watersAbstractBacillus subtilis widely exists in environment and shows a capability to deal with heavy metals and dyes in polluted waters by adsorption or biological oxidation and reduction. Little is known about the roles of lipopeptides in this capability of B. subtilis. In this study, we found that the lipopeptides produced by B. subtilis could reduce silver ions to silver nanoparticles...
