  • the present invention relates to a method for producing and extracting Tc-99m using Mo-99, and a Mo-99 / Tc-99m liquid generator, which can be repeatedly produced remotely over time.
  • Technetium 99m (Tc-99m, half-life 6 hours), which is used worldwide in the fields of nuclear medicine and diagnostic imaging, is the leading role of over 70% of the radioisotopes used in nuclear medicine.
  • Molybdenum 99 (Mo-99, half-life 66 hours) is a radioisotope called Tc-99m parent nuclide because Tc-99m is generated with the decay of Mo-99.

  • Patent Document 1 uses an alumina column for the adsorption of Mo-99, but the amount of Mo that can be adsorbed by the alumina column is not large. Introducing Mo-99 containing a large amount of Mo-98 or Mo-100 into an alumina column not only increases the amount of alumina but also when Tc-99m is to be recovered (eluted) from the column. A large amount of eluate is required. Therefore, in order to maintain stable Mo-99, for example, in a method in which zirconium and molybdenum are combined to prepare a column, a long processing time of about half a day or more is required to prepare the column. There is an operational problem.
  • Non-Patent Document 2 requires irritating and hygroscopic tetrabutylammonium bromide and toxic methyl chloride that needs to be careful of fire, and is inconvenient to handle. There is also a problem from the viewpoint of waste. Further, since MoO 4 2 ⁇ moves together with Na + , it is necessary to remove Na in the next use of Mo. In particular, when Mo-100 is used as a target material (Mo-99 raw material), the presence of Na is undesirable.

Since each system is independent, the time required for the treatment is not extended, and the increase in the amount of solvents to be used is very small because the original amount used is small.

Abstract

Selon l'invention, le Tc-99m produit à partir du Mo-99 peut être recueilli plusieurs fois par le passage d'une solution de Mo-99 contenant du Tc-99m dans une première colonne remplie d'une résine chromatographique d'extraction pour extraire et purifier le Tc-99m, et l'extraction et la purification à nouveau du Tc-99m à l'aide de la première colonne après que le Tc-99m est généré dans la solution de Mo-99.
PCT/JP2010/066435 2010-09-22 2010-09-22 Procédé pour la production/extraction du tc-99m en utilisant du mo-99, et générateur de liquides contenant du mo-99/tc-99m WO2012039038A1 (fr)
