Modifying the Siderophore Triacetylfusarinine C for Molecular Imaging of Fungal Infection.

Purpose: Aspergillus fumigatus produces the siderophore triacetylfusarinine C (TAFC) for iron acquisition which is essential for its virulence. Therefore, TAFC is a specific marker for invasive aspergillosis. We have shown previously that positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with [68Ga]TAFC ex...
