Table 1 Radiochemical purity and protocol time for each isolation method.

From: Noninvasive imaging of radiolabeled exosome-mimetic nanovesicle using 99mTc-HMPAO

Methods

*Procedure time

**Radiochemical purity (%) (n = 3/group)

Elution over PD-10 column

30 min

99.6±3.3

Centrifugation with exosome exclusive spin column

3 min

93.7±5.4

  1. *Procedure time: the time point until 99mTc-HMPAO-ENV was produced after the purification via size exclusion PD-10 column or exosome exclusive spin column.
  2. **Radiochemical purity: the measured % values by ITLC using Whatman no. 1 paper and 0.9% w/v NaCl solution as an eluent. Radiochemical purity was determined by following equation: E(%) = (1 − radioactivity of supernatant)/total radioactivity × 100%.
