Description

The elution behaviour of α-contaminants from the stationary phase material of commercially available 99Mo/99Tc generators were studied. This note describes the desorption behaviour of radioactive neptunium, uranium and plutonium from alumina and cerium-coated stationary-phase materials using an isotonic saline eluant. (U.K.)
