  • Publication number: 20230416293
    Abstract: Thymidine analogues, 5-substituted 2?-deoxy-2?-[18F]fluoro-arabinofuranosyluracil derivatives, are promising positron emission tomography (PET) tracers being evaluated for noninvasively imaging cancer cell proliferation and/or reporter gene expression. We report the radiosynthesis of 2?-deoxy-2?-[18F]fluoro-5-methyl-1-?-d-arabinofuranosyluracil ([18F]FMAU) and other 2?-deoxy-2?-[18F]fluoro-5-substituted-1-?-d-arabinofuranosyluracil analogues using 1,4-dioxane to replace the currently used 1,2-dichloroethane. Compared to 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,4-dioxane is analyzed as a better solvent in terms of radiosynthetic yield and toxicity concern. The use of a less toxic solvent allows for the translation of the improved approach to clinical production. The new radiolabeling method can be applied to an extensive range of uses for 18F-labeling of other nucleoside analogues.

  • Patent number: 11852979
    Abstract: An edge exposure tool may include a lens adjustment device that is capable of automatically adjusting various parameters of an edge exposure lens to account for changes in operating parameters of the edge exposure tool. In some implementations, the edge exposure tool may also include a controller that is capable of determining edge adjustment parameters for the edge exposure lens and exposure control parameters for the edge exposure tool using techniques such as big data mining, machine learning, and neural network processing. The lens adjustment device and the controller are capable of reducing and/or preventing the performance of the edge exposure tool from drifting out of tolerance, which may maintain the operation performance of the edge exposure tool and reduce the likelihood of wafer scratching, and may reduce the down-time of the edge exposure tool that would otherwise be caused by cleaning and calibration of the edge exposure lens.
