Abstract

Low acid concentration aqueous/organic mixtures with an anion exchange resin (AG1-X8) have been used to separate carrier-free 64Cu from the by-products of cyclotron produced 67Ga. The specific activity of the 64Cu (5 × 1014 Bq/g) was found to be higher than that reported previously. Trace levels (
