Description

64Cu is a useful radiotracer for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and a promising radiotherapy agent for the treatment of cancer. It has an intermediate half-life (T1/2 12.7 hrs) and a multiple decay mode that involves electron capture, and positron decay. We obtained 64Cu in dried format a yield of 4-5 GBq at the end of bombardment, or 40±5 MBq/μA h as the final product and further purification took 3.5 h of processing time. The metallic impurities were a satisfactory low level was obtained by a widely accepted separation using an anion exchange resin
