Description

2-Deoxy-2-Fluoro-D-Glucose is a fluorinated glucose analog widely recognized as a key intermediate in radiopharmaceutical synthesis. This compound matters for its critical role in the production of the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) tracer [¹⁸F]FDG, enabling non-invasive metabolic imaging in oncology, neurology, and cardiology. It is essential for pharmaceutical manufacturers, radiochemistry research facilities, and diagnostic imaging centers requiring high-purity precursors for reliable tracer production.

Application

• Radiopharmaceutical Synthesis: Primary precursor for the radiosynthesis of Fluorodeoxyglucose ([¹⁸F]FDG), the most widely used PET imaging agent.
• Oncology Research: Used in the development and production of diagnostic tracers for detecting and monitoring cancerous tumors based on glucose metabolism.
• Neurological Disorder Diagnostics: Key starting material for PET tracers used in imaging brain activity and diagnosing conditions like Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy.
• Cardiology Imaging: Enables the production of tracers for assessing myocardial viability and heart function in cardiac PET studies.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a tool compound in studies of glucose transport and metabolism mechanisms within cells.
• GMP Manufacturing: Supplied as a critical raw material under controlled conditions for the production of approved radiopharmaceuticals.

Quality Control

Our 2-Deoxy-2-Fluoro-D-Glucose is manufactured and tested to meet the stringent requirements for pharmaceutical intermediates. Each batch is supported by a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles. We adhere to robust quality management systems, and material can be supplied to meet specific customer protocols for radiopharmaceutical GMP applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term storage, consider desiccated conditions.
