A strategy for the solid phase synthesis of [18F]labelled peptides has been developed. The peptides were prepared on solid support and acylated with 4-[18F]fluorobenzoic acid using HATU within 3 min and the labelled peptide was released from the solid support

In search of a serotonin 5-HT(7) radiotracer for positron emission tomography, we developed 1-[2-[(2S)-1-(phenylsulfonyl)pyrrolidin-2-yl]ethyl]piperidin-4-yl 4-fluorobenzoate. After labeling in good yield with fluorine-18 via nitro for fluorine exchange, preliminary biological experiments with autoradiographies failed to evidence any specific 5-HT(7) receptor delineation.

The widely used bifunctional labeling reagent 4-[18F]fluorobenzoic acid ([18F]FBA) and its activated form N-succinimidyl 4-[18F]fluorobenzoate ([18F]SFB) were prepared using a modified Siemens/CTI chemistry process control unit (CPCU) double vessel [18F]FDG module. The products were obtained with a radiochemical yield greater

Because of their toxicity and biomagnification potential individual perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are regularly examined in food and environmental matrices by LC-MS/MS. The combustion ion chromatography (CIC) can be used to determine adsorbable organic fluorine (AOF) in aqueous samples.

A consortium of the newly isolated bacterial strains Arthrobacter sp. strain G1 and Ralstonia sp. strain H1 utilized 4-fluorocinnamic acid for growth under aerobic conditions. Strain G1 converted 4-fluorocinnamic acid into 4-fluorobenzoic acid and used the two-carbon side chain for
