DOTA

DOTA (tetraazacyclododecanetetraacetic acid) is a macrocyclic chelator widely used for coordinating metal ions in radiopharmaceuticals and targeted imaging agents. Its macrocyclic structure contains four nitrogen atoms and four carboxylate groups that form highly stable complexes with a variety of metal ions, including lanthanides and therapeutic radionuclides. This strong coordination chemistry enables reliable attachment of radioactive metals to biomolecules such as peptides, antibodies, or small molecules.

Due to its exceptional thermodynamic stability and kinetic inertness, DOTA has become a standard chelator in the development of targeted radiopharmaceuticals. It is widely used in molecular imaging and radionuclide therapy platforms, supporting applications such as diagnostic imaging and targeted radiotherapy. Continuous innovations in chelator design are further improving radiolabeling efficiency and enabling more precise theranostic strategies.

技术咨询

常见问题

DOTA相关的定制合成、工艺开发、分析资料与项目沟通问题。

Which radiometals does DOTA chelate?

DOTA is widely studied with Y, Lu, In, Ga, Cu, Bi, and lanthanide ions. The appropriate chelator and labeling conditions depend on the selected metal, biomolecule, and research application.

When should I choose DOTA vs NOTA?

DOTA is often selected for larger trivalent metals and lanthanide-related systems, while NOTA is commonly used for smaller metals such as Ga and Cu where faster labeling kinetics may be preferred.

How is DOTA-NHS ester stored?

DOTA-NHS ester is moisture-sensitive. Storage and handling should follow the batch-specific COA or technical note, and users should minimize exposure to moisture during weighing and solution preparation.

Can CHEMOS support custom DOTA building blocks?

CHEMOS can review custom DOTA derivatives, activated esters, PEG-spaced variants, and chelator-linker intermediates according to the target structure and analytical requirements.
