DEFINITION

Classification: 424/1.73

Attached to carbohydrate compound; derivative thereof (e.g., DNA, nucleotide, nucleoside, sugar, starch, tannin, saccharide, polysaccharide, cellulose, O-, N- and S-glycoside, vitamin B12):

(under subclass 1.65) Subject matter in which the radionuclide or intended radionuclide is attached (bonded, chelated, complexed) to a carbohydrate compound which is a saccharide and whose monomeric units are polyhydroxy mono-aldehydes or polyhydroxy mono-ketones, having the formula Cn(H2O)n, wherein n is five or six, or the corresponding cyclic hemiacetals thereof, or the reaction derivatives thereof in which the carbon skeleton and the carbonyl function or hemiacetal function of the saccharide unit are not destroyed; and the derivatives thereof.

(1) Note. For proper placement here, the saccharide or the monomeric saccharide radical unit of a polysaccharide must contain at least five carbon atoms, and the derivatives or reaction products must not destroy the carbon skeleton of the saccharide or polysaccharide.
