A method for labelling a sulfide compound with technetium or rhenium, comprising
the reaction of a disulfide compound with pertechnetate or perrhenate in the presence
of borohydride exchange resin to obtain a complex of technetium or rhenium with
the sulfide compound. The method can directly label disulfide compounds with technetium
or rhenium, can skip the synthetic step of thiol-protected S-precursor, and is
useful for high value-added radiopharmaceuticals.
