SUMMARY A number of commercially available technetium‐99m labelling kits have been evaluated. The study covers six different types of radiopharmaceuticals which were tested in combination with 99m Tc‐pertechnetate obtained from three different makes of generators. The labelling yield of the final products was determined by chromatography. In most single cases, acceptable labelling efficiency was obtained and the deterioration in quality by storage was negligible.
