The alternative analysis of A. Bianchi and M. Savastano is a valuable contribution to the understanding of the complex systems at stake in the complexation chemistry of Zr 4+ by considering polynuclear species. Placed in the context of nuclear medicine where such aggregates are unlikely and considering recent literature data, this however points out that no clear agreement exists to describe such complex formation.
