| Abstract: | A one-step procedure has been developed for the preparation of [3H]bilirubin IX-alpha in good yield from unlabelled bilirubin. Irradiation of an aqueous solution of [3H]bilirubin IX-alpha in the presence of human serum albumin results in the covalent attachment of the bilirubin to the protein. Preliminary degradation studies have been carried out to locate the site of attachment of the bilirubin to the albumin. |
