dc.description.abstractDinuclearbisphosphinogold(I) dithiocarbamato, BPDTC, was previously found to have antitumour activity in vitro. 198Au radiolabelled BPDTC (radiochemical yield of 70 ± 6 % and radiochemical purity of[95 %) was used to determine its in vivo biodistribution in Sprague-Dawley rats. Gamma scintigraphs were performed over a period of 48 h and final radioactivity measurements of harvested organs of the test animals after termination was performed at 2, 4 and 48 h. The study successfully showed the biodistribution of the gold complex, with the highest uptake of the compound being observed in the lungs, liver and spleenen_US
