Sensing Lanthanide Metal Content in Biological Tissues with Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
The development and validation of MRI contrast agents consisting of a lanthanide chelate often requires a determination of the concentration of the agent in ex vivo tissue. We have developed a protocol that uses 70% nitric acid to completely digest tissue samples that contain Gd(III), Dy(III), Tm(II...
