A method is described for the synthesis, purification and radiolabelling of [123I/131I]2-[5-(4-iodophenyl)-pentyl]oxirane-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester. For the synthesis of this new agent, 5-phenylpentyl bromide (1), synthesized by reacting 5-phenyl-1-pentanol with sodium bromide under acidic conditions, was converted to diethyl 5-phenylpentylmalonate

Hyperthermostable beta-glucosidase from Pyrococcus furiosus was enclosed in gelatin gel by cross-linking with transglutaminase. Gelatin-immobilized beta-glucosidase was considerably more thermostable than the native enzyme. Lyophilized immobilisate was stored at 90 degrees C for 1 month without loss of activity. The
