Tritium Radiosynthesis

Tritium Radiosynthesis Services

Pharmaron’s team of tritium experts work together with you to develop a radiolabelling strategy for the compound(s) and desired applications including late-stage lead optimization of candidate compounds. Our team provides advice on custom tritium-labelled compounds and optimal position(s) of the tritium [3H] label(s).

Tritium Radiosynthesis Techniques

  • Tritium gas exchange using modern heterogenous and homogeneous catalysts
  • Tritiated water exchange
  • Catalytic reduction with tritium gas
  • Reduction with [3H]Borohydride
  • Catalytic dehalogenation with tritium gas
  • Catalytic photoredox tritiation
  • High specific activity methylation using [methyl-3H]nosylate
  • Covalent tritium labelling of macromolecules using [3H]NSP
