Abstract: The present invention provides a technique for adsorbing I-125 on a support for treating cancer and a method of preparing an I-125 seed using the same. Since a method of preparing iodine according to the present invention uses an intermediate having phosphate-based, oxalate-based, or arsenate-based anions introduced thereinto, the intermediate has a substitution effect of iodine 3 to 5 times higher than that of a typically used intermediate having chlorine anions introduced thereinto. According to the substitution effect, control of a radiation dose may be possible during the manufacturing of an iodine seed and an iodine seed may be prepared within a shorter period of time. Also, since an amount of residual radioactive iodine may be decreased as a result of a large amount of adsorption, an amount of radioactive iodine (I-125) waste may be decreased, and the effect thereof may be also high environmentally.
