6-(18)F-fluoro-L-dopa ((18)F-FDOPA) has proven to be a useful radiopharmaceutical for the evaluation of presynaptic dopaminergic function using PET. In comparison to electrophilic synthesis, the no-carrier-added (NCA) nucleophilic method has several advantages. These include much higher available activity and specific activity.

The adhesive proteins secreted by marine mussels contain an unusual amino acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA), that is responsible for the cohesive and adhesive strength of this natural glue and gives mussels the ability to attach themselves to rocks, metals, and plastics.

We report a facile green approach to the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) on the surface of graphene oxide nanosheets functionalized with mussel-inspired dopamine (GO-Dopa) without additional reductants or stabilizers at room temperature. The resulting hybrid Ag/GO-Dopa exhibits good
