Cigarettes labeled with [11C]nicotine: formulation and administration for PET inhalation
Journal of Labelled Compounds and Radiopharmaceuticals, 11/02/09
Apana SM et al. – This in turn required a cigarette formulated with carbon–11 labeled nicotine suitable for administration by single bolus inhalation. Here authors report the development and validation of cigarettes formulated with [11C]nicotine that were successfully used for single bolus administration by smoking. The authors also report measurements of nicotine delivery from smoked cigarettes.
