CHEMICAL METHODS AND APPARATUS

摘要

The invention relates to methods and apparatus for labelling a biologically active vector such as a peptide with reporter moiety such as a radionuclide. The methods comprise reaction of a compound of formula (I) with a compound of formula (II): R*-L2 -N3 (II) or, a compound of formula (III) with a compound of formula (IV) wherein: L1, L2, L3, and L4 are each Linker groups; R* is a reporter moiety; in a narrow bore copper vessel. Microfluidic devices for performing the methods of the invention are also claimed.
