Experimental data supporting the radiolabelling of polystyrene microplastics with technetium-99m
Summary
This is a duplicate data deposit for the technetium-99m radiolabeling of polystyrene microplastics study, providing quality control, particle size, charge, and stability data for the radiotracer compound. Radiolabeled microplastics offer a promising approach for tracking plastic particles in biological tissues and environmental compartments with nuclear imaging techniques.
This workbook is intended to provide transparent data associated with yield and in-vitro stability work with the Ps-NH2-Tc99m microplastic-radiotracer compound. The data included quality control yield measurements, DLS hydrodynamic size and zeta potential measurements, and time-dependent stability in various environmentally and biologically relevant media. This work was conducted at Ege University, Institute of Nuclear Sciences.
