Therefore, an I-131 radiolabeled LHRH-derived immunogen was developed to visualize and evaluate the retention of LHRH-derived vaccines in rats."
"The LHRH immunogens, which contained equal moles of I-131-p607E, p667 and p500, were formulated with an equal volume of an adjuvant, Montanide ISA50. MicroSPECT/CT imaging was performed to visualize the retention of the radiolabeled immunogen up to...
