In the following list in the first column we have, indicated the USAN for the active agents produced from the various kits presently available. This USAN is the name to be used in reporting the clinical use of these active agents.

By agreement between the USAN Council and the Food and Drug Administration the nonproprietary name for the nonradioactive kit is simply the name of the active agent produced by the kit (the USAN given in the first column of our list) plus the work 'kit.' Thus "technetium Tc 99m albumin aggregated" is produced by reacting sodium pertechnetate Tc 99m with the ingredients of a kit labeled
"technetium Tc 99m albumin aggregated kit."
The listing also provides trademarks for the kits where these exist or are known as well as the names of the kit manufacturers.
