11.1 Chemical Characteristics Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection, USP is a positron emitting radiopharmaceutical that is used for diagnostic purposes in conjunction with positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. The active ingredient 2-deoxy-2-[ 18 F]fluoro-D-glucose has the molecular formula of C 6 H 11 18 FO 5 with a molecular weight of 181.26, and has the following chemical structure: Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection, USP is provided as a ready to use sterile, pyrogen-free, clear, colorless citrate buffered solution. Each mL contains between 0.740 to 11.1 GBq (20 to 300 mCi) of 2-deoxy-2-[ 18 F]fluoro-D-glucose at the EOS, 4.5 mg of sodium chloride in citrate buffer, with 0.1 to 0.5% of ethanol as an antioxidant stabilizer. The pH of the solution is between 4.5 and 7.5. The solution is packaged in a multiple-dose glass vial and does not contain any preservative. Chemical Structure 11.2 Physical Characteristics Fluorine F 18 has a physical half-life of 109.7 minutes and decays to Oxygen 0 18 (stable) by positron decay. The principal photons useful for imaging are the dual 511 keV "annihilation" gamma photons that are produced and emitted simultaneously in opposite direction when the positron interacts with an electron (Table 2).

The active ingredient 2-deoxy-2-[ 18 F]fluoro-D-glucose has the molecular formula of C 6 H 11 18 FO 5 with a molecular weight of 181.26, and has the following chemical structure: Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection is provided as a ready to use sterile, pyrogen free, clear, colorless citrate buffered solution. Each mL contains between 0.740 to 11.1 GBq (20.0 to 300 mCi) of 2-deoxy-2-[ 18 F]fluoro-D-glucose at the EOS, 4.5 mg of sodium chloride in citrate buffer. The pH of the solution is between 4.5 and 7.5. The solution is packaged in a multiple-dose glass vial and does not contain any preservative. Chemical Structure 11.2 Physical Characteristics Fluorine F 18 has a physical half-life of 109.8 minutes and decays to Oxygen O 18 (stable) by positron decay. The principal photons useful for imaging are the dual 511 keV "annihilation" gamma photons that are produced and emitted simultaneously in opposite directions when the positron interacts with an electron (Table 2).
