New precipitation method for isolation of 99mTc from irradiated 100Mo target
نویسندگان
چکیده
Technetium-99m is the most widely used radionuclide in nuclear medicine. This work describes the method to separate 99mTc from irradiated 100Mo target. For this purpose we utilized formation of ammonium molybdenum phosphate (AMP) and have optimized the four parameters of the process. The proposed process is promising and allows fast separation of macroamounts of molybdenum without co-precipitation of 99mTc. The concentration of molybdenum in solution after precipitation of AMP was lower than 300 µg ml-1. Additional purification using AnaLigTc-02 is required to obtain solution with lower concentration of molybdenum.

Technetium is an element that is artificially produced and all its isotopes are radioactive. Several investigations have been performed on the subject of the production of Tc radioisotopes using cyclotrons. Among these radioisotopes, 99mTc with a half-life of 6.02 h and gamma-ray spectrum with an energy peak at 140.5 keV has a vast application in nuclear medicine. More than 85% of administered ...
