Abstract
The preparation of stable and immunoreactive radioiodinated clonidine for the development of a radioimmunoassay of clonidine is described Ty rosylmethyl ester (TME) conjugate of carboxylic acid derivative of clo nidine was radioiodinated using chloramineT as the oxidizing agent. Th e radioiodinated clonidine was purified by thin layer chromatography, gel filtration and solvent extraction. Radiochemical purity, specific activity and immunoreactivity were determined. The stability of the la beled compound during storage was tested in various solvents at differ ent temperatures.
