Abstract
Polymeric liposomes containing a synthetic porphinato-iron-imidazole complex (hemoglobin or red blood cell model) were labeled by introducing 1,2-di[1-14C]palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine into their polymerized bilayers. After intravenous injection into rats, their clearance from a blood stream was measured. The apparent half-life time (50% disappearance time) was about 14 ± 2 h. Their tissue distribution was determined with time by whole autoradiographic measurement.
