Carbon-11 labelled acetate ([11C]acetate) is a radiotracer of importance in clinical practice as well as in preclinical research. The TRACERLab FX C Pro Synthesizer can be used this sensitive carboxylation reaction. Starting from 11 GBq [11C]CO2, we were able to isolate about 3 GBq [11C]acetate after only 20 min reaction time (yield 56 ± 7%, n = 10). Copyright © 2022. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
