The same liposomal preparation was used to investigate the effect of the administered dose on the biodistribution and pharmacokinetics (41). The effect of the lipid dose of Tc-HYNIC-PEG-liposomes was investigated in the low-dose range (0.02-1.0 pmol/kg), typically for noninvasive imaging applications. The biodistribution and pharmacokinetics of "Tc-HYNIC-PEG-liposomes at various dose levels were studied in rats and rabbits with a focal Escherichia coli infection. Moreover, the pharmacokinetics of Tc-HYNIC-PEG-liposomes at two lipid dose levels were studied in four patients. In rabbits, enhanced clearance was observed at a dose level of 0.02 pmol/kg. The circulatory half-life decreased from 10.4 to 3.5 hours (at 1.0 and 0.02 pmol/kg, respectively). At the lowest dose level, liposomes were mainly taken up by the liver and to a lesser extent by the spleen. Most importantly, the rapid clearance of low-dose PEG liposomes was also observed in humans when relatively low lipid doses were administered as is shown in Figure 4. This study showed that, at very low lipid doses, the biodistribution of PEG liposomes is dramatically altered.

Extracts of cells - of Escherichia coli infected with a T-even bacteriophage contain an enzyme deoxycytidylate hydroxymethylase which is not detected in uninfected cells it catalyzes the formation of 6 -(hydroxymethyl)-2-deoxyc3didylic acid from formaldehyde and 2-deoxycytidyUc acid in the presence of tetrahydrofolic acid and magnesium ions. In a large-scale experiment, 10.6 mg. of the barium salt was prepared.
