Abstract
Abstract A process is disclosed for the preparation of a diagnositc agent for scanning the RES, in particular the liver, by mixing the sodium salt of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone-4-methylamino-methylsulfonic acid or 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone in aqueous solution with tin(II) salt, adjusting the solution to a pH between 4 and 9, optionally lyophilizing the mixture and adding 99m Tc-pertechnetate in physiological saline solution.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
70 words
A process for the preparation of a diagnostic agent for scanning the RES, which comprises mixing the sodium salt of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone-4-methylamino-methylsulfonic acid or 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone in an aqueous solution with tin(II) salt in a molar ratio of 15:1 to 110:1, adjusting the resulting solution to a pH between 4 and 9, and afterwards adding from 0.1 to 100 mCi of 99m Tc-pertechnetate in 1 to 10 ml of physiological saline solution.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
70 words
A process for the preparation of a diagnostic agent for scanning the RES, which comprises mixing the sodium salt of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone-4-methylamino-methylsulfonic acid or 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone in an aqueous solution with tin(II) salt in a molar ratio of 15:1 to 110:1, adjusting the resulting solution to a pH between 4 and 9, and afterwards adding from 0.1 to 100 mCi of 99m Tc-pertechnetate in 1 to 10 ml of physiological saline solution.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
The process as defined in claim 1 wherein the pH adjusted mixture of sodium salt of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone-4-methylamino-methylsulfonic acid and 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone with tin(II) salt is further lyophilized.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
A process as defined in claim 8 wherein the concentration of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone-4-methylaminomethylsulfonic acid or 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone is in the range of from 0.1 to 200 mg/ml.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 or 3 wherein the concentration of 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone-4-methylamino-methylsulfonic acid or 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-pyrazolone is in the range of from 1 to 50 mg/ml.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
51 words
