Abstract
When some 14C-labeled D-amino acids were injected into tumor-bearing mice, radioactivity of the D-amino acid in tumor was several times higher than that of the corresponding L-amino acid. D-Amino acid derivatives labeled with a .gamma.-emitter might be useful as tumor-scanning agents.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
