Abstract
This invention relates to antibody-metal ion complexes having a metal ion coordinately bound to a compatible chelator covalently bound to an antibody or antibody fragment. Also described are methods for intermediates in the preparation of antibody-metal ion complexes. Therapeutic and in vitro and in vivo diagnostic methods utilizing such antibody-metal ion complexes are described.
