The ninth IUCCP Symposium, held March 18-21, 1991 at Texas A&M University was the second in a two part series focusing on Biotechnology. The title for this Symposium "Applications of Enzyme Biotechnology" was by design a rather all encompassing title, similar in some respects to the discipline. Biotechnology refers to the application of biochemistry for the development of a commercial product. Persons employed in or interested in biotechnology may be chemists, molecular biologists, biophysicists, or physicians. The breadth of biotech research projects requires close collaboration between scientists of a variety of backgrounds, prejudices, and interests. Biotechnology is a comparatively new discipline closely tied to new developments in the fields of chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology and medicine. The primary function of Texas A&M University is to educate students who will be appropriately trained to carry out the mission of biotechnology. The IUCCP Symposium serves as an important forum for fostering closer ties between academia and industry and exchanging ideas so important to this evolving area. The topics that were discussed during this conference, include the oxidation of alkanes by enzymes, protein folding, waste remediation, protein purification techniques, and protein expression systems. These titles represent a smorgasbord of topics of importance to the biotechnology industry. The manuscripts submitted point out not only the tremendous progress made in each one of those areas, but also discuss the challenges still facing the industry as a whole. Many of the problems facing the biotech companies are the same problems that academic biochemists and molecular biologists face on a daily basis. It was clear to all participants that general solutions to thorny problems such as protein expression, waste remediation, and refolding recombinant proteins could form the basis for very successful companies. This pioneering and entrepreneurial spirit is what makes biotechnology so exciting and what attracts some of the brightest people to this area. We are deeply indebted to the IUCCP sponsoring companies Abbott Labs, Hoechst-Celanese, Monsanto Chemical Company, BF Goodrich, Dow Chemical Company for providing the necessary resources to carry out this endeavor. v The co-chainnen of the conference were Professor Thomas O. Baldwin, and Frank M. Raushel of the Texas A&M University Chemistry Department. The program was developed by an academic steering committee consisting of the co-chainnen and members appointed by the sponsoring chemical companies Dr. James Burrington, BP America; Dr. Robert Durrwater, Hoechst-Celanese; Dr. Barry Haymore, Monsanto Chemical Company; Dr. Mehmet Gencer, BF Goodrich; Dr. Paul Swanson, Dow Chemical Company; and Professor Arthur Martell, Texas A&M IUCCP Coordinator. In closing, the organizers of the Ninth IUCCP Symposium must recognize the contributions that have been made to the symposium by Mrs. Mary Martell, who dealt with the innumerable details necessary for a successful symposium. Her pleasant nature and efficiency are appreciated. Finally, we wish to thank the Texas A&M graduate students who donated their time to ensure smooth operations. Thomas O. Baldwin Jeffery W.

Schwarz and Michael J. Welch Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology Washington University, 510 S. Kingshighway St. Louis, MO, U.S.A. INTRODUCTION The use of radiolabeled antibodies in the detection and treatment of cancer has been in practice since the early 1980's. Radioimmunoimaging is an in vivo diagnostic technique where a radiolabeled antibody is taken up or bound to an antigen in a target tissue. This allows for non-invasive imaging of the antigen containing tissue, using a gamma camera or a positron emission tomograph (PET) scanner, for subsequent therapy or resection of the tissue if necessary. Radioimmunotherapy is the delivery of a therapeutic quantity of a radioisotope to the same antigen containing tissue to ablate or reduce a primary or metastatic carcinoma. This chapter will cover the basic principles of antibodies, subsequent conjugation with bifunctional chelates and radiolabeling for the purpose of radioimmunoimaging or radioimmunotherapy. Antibodies (Ab) are immunoglobulins produced as a result of the body's immune response. This reaction is triggered when the body is faced with foreign matter. "Immunogens" or antigens can be bacteria, viruses, fungi, or any foreign proteins. Each antigen (Ag) has more than one epitope or antigenic determinant (figure 1). These epitopes represent only a small fraction of the Ag molecule. Once a single Ag is injected into the bloodstream it interacts either by direct associaton with a B-Iymphocyte or the Ag is "processed" by macrophages and "presented" to the B lymphocyte by a T-helper cell. After interaction with the B-Iymphocyte the B-cell is activated, and proliferates. It then differentiates into a plasma cell which secretes the Ah specific for the Ag (figure 2). After Ag injection there is a lag time of approximately one week before production of these Ag specific Ab. Antibodies are glycoproteins consisting of five different classes: IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE and IgD (figure 3). Each group contains one or more subunits of a Y shape. Each Y unit contains 4 polypeptides, two identical segments called heavy chains and 2 segments called light chains (figure 4). Each class of Ab has a specific type of heavy chain, but there are only 2 types of light chain polypeptides known as kappa (lC) and lambda ().). These chains are held together with multiple inter and intra disulfide bonds and non-covalent bonds. When the body is faced with an unknown Ag, the IgM class of immunoglobulins is
