Synthesis of carbon-11-labeled casimiroin analogues as new potential PET agents for imaging of quinone reductase 2 and aromatase expression in breast cancer.

abstract：:A radioimmunological method was developed for determining total and free corticosterone in rat plasma. This method was used to determine the dose-response curve of corticosterone and to measure the elimination and study the half-lives of total and free corticosterone in rat plasma with a dose of 5 mg/kg. The eliminati...
