Chromatography diagrams of standard (A) and alternative (B) methods for RCP testing of 99mTc-tetrofosmin.
- FIGURE 2.
Two strips (initial strip and replicate) were run for both standard and alternative RCP testing methods at 30 min after initial reconstitution of kit at 0 min. Additions of 99mTc-sodium pertechnetate were made at 30, 40, 50, and 60 min. After each addition, there was 10 min of incubation, followed by RCP testing using both methods. RCP evaluation was completed at 40, 50, 60, and 70 min, each being a time point for separate 99mTc-sodium pertechnetate addition.
