Abstract: Provided herein are radiolabeled compounds useful for non-invasive imaging techniques. An exemplary radiolabeled compound provided herein is useful as a radiotracer for positron emission tomography. The present application also provides unlabeled compounds useful in methods of treating diseases of the central nervous system or disease of the peripheral nervous system. Methods for preparing radiolabeled compounds, preparing unlabeled compounds, and diagnostic methods using labeled or unlabeled compounds are also provided.

Abstract: Methods for removing salts from a metabolite solution. The methods comprise forming an insoluble silver phosphate salt. Further methods include methods for removing hydrolyzed fluorous compounds. These methods comprise extraction with a fluorous solvent in the presence of a protonation reagent and/or chromatography on a fluorous affinity resin. Methods also include separating lysed cell debris and denatured proteins/disrupted enzymes from a metabolite mixture in a container with a filter, where live cells are grown prior to the lysis, either adherent to the filter or in suspension above the filter. The cells are then lysed in the container.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to methods and apparatus that measure one or more properties of an individual cell type in a non-contact co-culture. More specifically, the invention relates to a novel multiwell plate that allows separate but simultaneous metabolic measurements of cell populations in non-contact co culture.
