Radiochemistry

Delivering precision and efficiency for all your 
radiochemistry needs.

Radiochemistry Services

Our radiochemistry team has radiolabeled hundreds of biological agents and small molecules for preclinical and clinical trial imaging. From targeted small molecules to monoclonal antibodies, peptides, and live cell labeling, we provide expertise across a diverse range of chemical entities.

Additionally, we offer ligand discovery support, leveraging our in-house expertise to optimize candidate selection.

  • 900+ agents radiolabeled
  • Extensive experience with US and UK/EU GMP regulatory requirements
  • 80+ IND submissions supported for novel radiotracers
  • Significant supply chain capabilities, supporting 300 global production centers
  • External manufacturing offering covering US, EU, APAC, and Oceania, including site identification, qualification, set up, validation, and oversight

Your Work is Global and So Are We

Perceptive offers in-house radiochemistry and clinical services, oversees clinical manufacturing at external sites, and produces and supplies radiotracers to imaging sites across the US and UK. We also facilitate access to a global network of radiotracer manufacturers, enabling GMP manufacturing at one of our sites with subsequent technology transfer to one of many perceptive-qualified sites based on geographical needs.

Our team also has extensive experience collaborating with external manufacturers to optimize and advance new tracers for IND applications and support NDA submissions for commercial use.
