Evaluation of 68Ga-DOTA-Ubiquicidin (29–41) for imaging Staphylococcus aureus (Staph A) infection and turpentine-induced inflammation in a preclinical setting

Synthetic antimicrobial peptide fragment, 99mTc-Ubiquicidin 29–41, is shown to be sensitive and also specific for imaging bacterial infections. We undertook this study to explore the advantage of using a positron emission agent, 68Ga-DOTA-Ubiquicidin 29–41 (68Ga-DOTA-UBI), for detecting Staph-A infe...
