Abstract: The invention provides radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic and therapeutic applications, conjugates of antioxidants with metal chelating ligands, intermediate compounds, methods of making such radiopharmaceuticals, ligands, and intermediate compounds, and kits for preparing the radiopharmaceutical complexes.

Abstract: The present invention provides, inter alia, peptides, peptide dimer, and multimeric complexes comprising at least one binding moiety for KDR or VEGF/KDR complex, which have a variety of uses wherever treating, detecting, isolating or localizing angiogenesis is advantageous. Particularly disclosed are synthetic, isolated polypeptides capable of binding KDR or VEGF/KDR complex with high affinity (e.g., having a KD<1 ?M), and dimer and multimeric constructs comprising these polypeptides.

Abstract: Methods for the preparation of multivalent constructs for therapeutic and diagnostic applications are provided. More specifically, novel methods for preparing multivalent constructs comprising the formula A-B-C-D-E-B?-F for therapeutic and diagnostic applications are provided which use a novel linker D comprising, in various embodiments, a dicarboxylic acid derivative such as, e.g., a glutaric acid bis N-hydroxysuccinimidyl ester or a derivative therof; or a diamine derivative. The remaining components in the multivalent construct A-B-C-D-E-B?-F are defined as follows: A is a first peptide, B is a first branching group, C is an optional first spacer, E is an optional second spacer which may be the same as or different from said first spacer C, B? is an optional second branching group which may be the same as or different from said first branching group B, and F is a second peptide which may be the same as or different from said first peptide A.

Abstract: The present invention relates to radiolabelled compounds particularly 1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane compounds (i.e., quinuclidine compounds) which are labeled with one or more radioisotopes and which are suitable for imaging or therapeutic treatment of tissues, organs, or tumors which express the a7-nicotinic cholinergic receptor. In another embodiment, the invention relates to methods of imaging tissues, organs, or tumors using radiolabeled compounds of the invention, particularly tissues, organs, or tumors which express a7-nicotinic cholinergic receptor to which the compounds of the invention have an affinity.

Abstract: The invention provides a granular edible pesticidal composition comprising: (a) a continuous hydrophilic matrix phase comprising hydrophilic material, preferably in particulate form and water, said matrix phase being palatable to pests; and (b) a discontinous oleophilic phase dispersed within the hydrophilic matrix phase and comprising an oleophilic carrier and pesticide preferably dissolved in the oleophilic phase.
