Current methods of 111In chelate conjugation labeling of antibodies expose the protein to pH 5-6 during 111In chelation. These conditions could be detrimental if the antibody is acid labile. We have successfully labeled human IgG via the cyclic anhydride of DPTA and 111In-oxyquinoline(oxine). Chelation was achieved at pH 6.9-8.4 and was complete within 1 min at room temperature. The chelation was sensitive to trace metal contamination on labware and in some reagents (including commercial 111In-oxine).
