The Go Medical Therap-I MAB Kit is a sterile tubing system which enables the transfer of radioactive proteins between a labeling (reaction) vessel and a purification column using peristaltic pumps. The MAB kit is supplied without reagents, pumps and the purification column, which will be provided by the client.
Product History
The MAB kit was developed upon request from, and in conjunction with, Professor Harvey Turner and his research group at the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Fremantle Hospital. The requirement specified by Professor Turner was for the design and construction of a sterile tubing system which enabled the transfer of radioactive proteins between a labeling vessel and a purification column using peristaltic pumps.
Since 2001, multi-centre clinical trials of the radiopharmaceutical infusion pump system have been undertaken under the supervision of Dr. Harvey Turner in various locations throughout Australia.
The Therap-I MAB kit is regarded as laboratory equipment rather than a Medical Device.
