Summary

The distribution of 99mTc-Unithiol complex was studied by macro-autoradiography in rats and in rabbit kidneys, and the presence of activity in the renal cortex was easily demonstrated. Using micro-autoradiography, the accumulation of activity in various parts of the nephron was observed to concentrate in the cells of the proximal and distal tubuli to a larger extent than in the glomeruli.

Zusammenfassung

Die Verteilung des 99mTc-Unithiol-Komplexes wurde makro-autoradiographisch in Ratten und in der Kaninchenniere untersucht, wobei das Vorhandensein von Radioaktivität in der Nierenrinde leicht nachgewiesen werden konnte. Mittels Mikro-Autoradiographie konnte gezeigt werden, daß die Aktivität in den Zellen der proximalen und distalen Tubuli stärker konzentriert wird als in den Glomeruli.
