METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FRACTION CONTAINING A PURE MO-99 RADIOISOTOPE, FRACTION AND GENERATOR CONTAINING THE MO-99 RADIOISOTOPE

摘要

A process for producing a fraction containing a radioisotope of Mo-99 pure comprising the steps of dissolving basic LEU targets with obtaining a slurry, addition of alkaline earth metal nitrate, in particular strontium, calcium or barium, more preferably barium, and sodium carbonate to said slurry, filtering said slurry, acidification of the filtrate, purification molybdenum salts on a chromatographic column, and recovering said fraction containing said radioisotope Mo-99 pure fraction and generator containing the radioisotope of Mo-99.
