Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a method for obtaining a high-purity copper-64 isotope, and more particularly to an acid stream washing waste process for obtaining a gallium-67 isotope from zinc-68. A method for obtaining a high-purity copper-64 isotope in a liquid. [Prior Art] In recent years, Positron Emission Tomography (PET) has emerged at a rapid rate and has become an important diagnostic angiography model in medicine. It is mainly used to determine the occurrence and severity of cancer and the nervous system. Conditions and cardiovascular diseases. At present, PET has been recognized as particularly effective in determining certain diseases, including judging whether cancer is present, whether it has spread and metastasized, responding to treatment, checking whether cancer has recurred, and whether the patient no longer has cancer cells after treatment. Cancers that are particularly effective with PET include lung cancer, head and neck cancer, colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer, lymphoma, melanoma, breast cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, cervical cancer, pancreatic cancer, and brain tumors. In short, the use of PET imaging requires the injection of radiopharmaceuticals into the patient. The radioactive drug releases the signal in the patient's body and is received by the external PET scanner, which in turn forms an image. The image taken with PET can be visualized. Chemical changes in organs or tissues such as tumors. Furthermore, radioisotopes can be applied to the diagnosis or treatment of diseases after the development of nucleating pharmaceutical dosage forms depending on the type of radiation they emit. The cyclotron is an important isotope generator for clinical nuclear medicine. It can produce mid-length half-life isotopes such as 201141791 • 20 indium·111, moth.123, ftM8 and gallium·67, and carbon·1 octa·15. A short-lived nuclear species such as nitrogen-13, which is used for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, verrucous function, tumors, inflammation and metabolic diseases. With the advancement of nuclear medicine and clinical needs, in addition to the development of diagnostic isotopes, cyclotrons have received increasing attention for the production and application of therapeutic isotopes. Among them, radioisotope copper, which has both diagnostic and therapeutic functions, is particularly valued. . Copper-64 has a moderate half-life (12.7 hours), can release 511 keV of energy, is suitable for ρΕτ angiography, and can release 1346]^¥ of the beta ray, which has the potential to treat e64Cu combined with appropriate ligands (eg Small molecule compounds, peptides or monoclonal antibodies) can be used for the diagnosis or therapeutic use of diseases 'for example, 64CU-PTSM for cardiac perfusion imaging, Cu-ATSM for hypoxic lacquers' for detecting multiple drug resistance 64Cu-bis (diphosphine) complexes (multidrug resistance) for the diagnosis and treatment of endocrine tumors 64Cu-TETA-Octreotide, 64Cu-diacetyl-bis (N-methylthiosemicarba-zone), 64Cu-labeled single plant Antibodies can be applied to radioimmunoassays. Since the half-life of 64Cu is only 12.7 hours, it is difficult to store. In view of this, the development of copper _64 isotope is usually carried out with a 30 MeV medium cyclotron, which is electroplated with a high-abundance stable isotope nickel-64 on a solid target. ~18MeV proton beam irradiation' is then separated and purified to obtain high purity radioisotope copper-64. However, nickel-64, a high-abundance stable isotope, is quite expensive and is cost-effective. Still thinking about other methods of producing copper-64 radioisotopes. On the other hand, gallium-67 (67Ga) is one of the important medical radioisotopes. At present, the technology has been established to develop the gallium-67 isotope by the zinc-68 solid target by cyclotron irradiation 201141791. The production of nuclear medicine is widely used in the diagnosis of infection, inflammation and lymphoma. With reference to the nuclear reaction diagram of 辞.Μ, it can be seen that the nucleus produced by the nucleus except for gallium _66, gallium and recorded 68 is another important product, namely steel _64. In the past, the high-purity gallium-67 isotope was obtained. It is considered as a nuclear impurity and is separated into the acid flow washing waste liquid (hereinafter, the simple _67 acid flow washing waste liquid) in the so-called gallium-67 process. In view of this, it is considered to recover and purify copper-64 from gallium 67 acid washing waste liquid. This technology will establish a zinc-68 target and produce two kinds of useful radioisotope gallium _67 and spider 64, which will bring new opportunities for the development of nuclear medicine and the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a method for obtaining a high-purity steel _64 isotope by irradiating a zinc-68 solid target with a proton beam, except that the isotope gallium-67 is routinely produced by an established technique, and the present invention is derived from zinc. _68 Developed gallium-67 acid flow washing waste liquid produced by gallium _67 'in step-by-step separation and purification technology using ion exchange resin to obtain another isotope copper-64' whose nuclear purity is higher than 99%.

The effluent from the column. Next, in step 25, an appropriate amount of an equivalent concentration of 1N or 2N of HCl solution is added to the second column, and the effluent of the second column is collected. The effluent contains high purity copper-64 isotopes. After obtaining the effluent containing the high-purity copper-64 isotope in step 25, the user can perform the step of concentrating and removing acid according to the concentration requirement to obtain high-purity copper-64 isotope of different concentrations, and the method of concentrating acid removal is used. Knowing the technology has been widely disclosed and will not be repeated here. After the stable isotope zinc-68 is irradiated by a cyclotron, the unreacted zinc-68 must be recycled. Therefore, after obtaining the effluent containing the high-purity copper-64 isotope in step 25, an appropriate amount (120 ml in the present embodiment) of water can be continuously added to the second column, and the effluent is collected to obtain zinc-68. After collecting the liquid and then concentrating it, the copper-based silver target for solid use can be recovered.

The effects of all samples were analyzed by multi-channel analyzer (MCA). The results showed that the cation exchange resin can recover more than 98% of copper·64, while gallium-67 The removal rate is over 95%. The collected liquid obtained above was further separated and purified by anion exchange resin (AG 1-Χ8, 100-200 mesh, • chloride form), and the experimental results showed that gallium-67 can be further removed.

Further, in order to obtain optimum separation conditions, the present invention simultaneously performs the influence of the different filling column specifications of the anion-cation exchange resin on the copper-64 separation. First, compare the difference between the two inner diameters of the cation exchange resin 〇.5cin and the column of lcm (the length is 15cm). Experiments show that both copper _64 flow wash rates are greater than • 99%, the inner diameter of the two columns Suitable for use. Then compare the anion exchange resin, here use three specifications of the column, respectively: (丨) inner diameter 〇 5cmX length 10cm, (2) inner diameter lcmx length l〇cm and (3) inner diameter lcmx length 15cm, analysis The results show that the copper-64 adsorption rates are (1) 98.5%, (2) 99.5%, and (3) 99.99%, respectively, which are suitable as the column specifications for anion exchange resins. Furthermore, the effect of different acidity HC1 washes on the copper-64 collection rate was compared. Figure 3 is a graph showing the effect of the use of different acidity HC1 washes on the copper-64 collection rate of the present invention. As shown in Figure 3, the copper-64 collection rates of the 201141791 HC1 panning solution with equivalent concentrations of 1N and 2N are similar, mostly concentrated in the first 20mL. Conversely, when using the equivalent concentration of 3N Ηα panning solution, copper-64 is slower. It appears and is widely distributed, resulting in a large volume of flow washing liquid, which is not conducive to the subsequent implementation of concentrated acid removal. After the stable isotope zinc-68 is irradiated by the cyclotron, the unreacted zinc-68 must be recycled for use to save the amount of zinc-68. The present invention simultaneously analyzes the effect of different acidity HC1 washes on zinc-68 recovery. Since the recovery of a substance can be reflected from its activity in the solution, Figure 4 shows the effect of the effect of the use of different acidity HC1 washes on the recovery of zinc-68. As shown in Figure 4, the recovery of zinc-68 from the HC1 wash solution at an equivalent concentration of 2 略 is slightly higher than that of the 1 Ν HC1 wash solution, but without statistical difference, showing HC1 scouring at an equivalent concentration of 1 Ν and 2 Ν. The lotion is a suitable lotion. As shown by the results of the above experiments, the elution results of the HC1 elution solution with the equivalent concentration of 1Ν or 2Ν are more ideal than the 3Ν HC1 wash solution, the copper is washed out a lot, and the zinc and gallium are adsorbed in the column. 'When the water is used as the washing liquid, a large amount of zinc is washed out. Therefore, the present invention can first use an equivalent concentration of 1 Ν or 2 Ν of the HC1 elution solution as a washing solution chromatography solution to adsorb gallium-67 and zinc-68, and wash out copper-64 to achieve the purpose of purifying nuclear species. The anion exchange resin is then continuously washed with water for recovery of zinc-68. The present invention can also be used to establish a semi-automated isotope surface production technique in a lead chamber. The yield is stable and the quality is excellent. The invention can not only save the use amount of the fixed isotope zinc-68, but also can improve the efficiency of the use of the accelerator. It can obtain two medical isotopes gallium 67 and surface]-64 at one time, and make it to the festival 10 201141791. The aim is to automate the design and reduce the radiation dose of the staff, which has great potential for application. However, the above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. It is to be understood that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the spirit and scope of the present invention, and should be considered as further implementation of the present invention. 201141791 [Simple description of the diagram] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a process for obtaining a gallium-67 isotope using zinc-68 by a conventional technique.
