| Abstract | Neurodegenerative, inflammatory and neoplastic disorders involve neuroinflammatory reactions in the central nervous system that isolate the damaged tissue and promote im-mune responses by the activation of resident cells of the mono-cytes lineage (microglia). This process involves an overexpression of the 18 kDa translocator protein receptor (TSPO). PK11195 is an isoquinoline carboxamide which binds selectively to this re-ceptor. The (R)-enantiomer radiolabelled with carbon-11 is the most widely used radiotracer for in vivo TSPO imaging with Posi-tron Emission Tomography (PET). We report the optimisation of synthesis, purification and reformulation of $(R)-[N-MethyJ-^{11}C]PK11195$ by the captive solvent method suitable for use in human PET imaging studies. $(R)-[NMethyJ-^{11}C]PK11195$ was prepared from [N-Desmethyl]PK11195 by alkylation with [llC]methyl iodide reacting at room temperature in an high-performance liquid chromatography loop, purified and reformulated by solid phase extraction. Synthesis process is carried out in about 35 minutes, and quality control tests were performed to ensure the good quality of product. The specific activity of $(R)-[N-MethyJ-^{11}C]PK11195$ was 25±10 GBq/μmol, and radiochemical purity was better than 95%. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
