Dissolving Palladium-105 (II) Nitrate

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone is well.

Apologies if this thread has already been mentioned elsewhere. I've recently bought some Palladium-105 (II) Nitrate and I'm trying to dissolve it in Nitric Acid to use in antibody conjugations. To cut a long story short, I added 761 uL of 15.1N Nitric acid to the Palladium-105 (II) Nitrate (the final concentration (currently) at 100 mM) and it still hasn't dissolved. Interestingly, I also bought some Palladium-104 (II) Nitrate and that dissolved very easily in just 190 uL of 5N Nitric acid (final concentration being 500 mM).

Does anybody have any suggestions on how I can dissolve my Pd-105 Nitrate?

Many thanks,

Jahangir
