Abstract

The increasing use of monoclonal antibody-bifunctional chelator conjugates in clinical practice has created the need for quality control procedures providing relatively simple and reliable determination of the chelator-to-protein (C/P) ratio. Spectroscopic methods offer a valuable alternative to the use of radioactive isotopes for this purpose. This article discusses the application of UW/Vis spectrophotometry, fluorescence spectroscopy, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for the quality control of MAb-chelator conjugates.
