Abstract: A kit for producing a radiopharmaceutical, having: a cation exchange cartridge; a reaction vial having a marker precursor; a solution vial having a solvent; an elution vial having a sterile solution including common salt (NaCl) and hydrochloric acid (HCl); and a buffer salt. A method for producing a radiopharmaceutical is also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a kit for preparing a radiopharmaceutical, the method comprising the steps: elution of a 68Ge/68Ga-Generator using hydrochloric acid as an eluent for obtaining a generator eluate comprising 68Gallium, feeding the generator eluate through a cation exchange cartridge, which collects the 68Gallium, separating the used eluent, eluting the 68Gallium from the cation exchange cartridge using a solution comprising sodium chloride and hydrochloric acid and feeding the resulting eluate into an aqueous precursor mixture comprising at least a labelling precursor thereby forming a reaction solution.
