Abstract: Disclosed herein are a system and method for electroplating an alpha emitting radionuclide, such as an actinide, for use in alpha spectroscopy. The electrodeposition system for electroplating an alpha emitting radionuclide can include an electroplating cell containing a solution of an electrolyte and the alpha emitting radionuclide, a metal target within the electroplating cell, and a metal anode at a distance from the metal target. The system also includes a platform for supporting the electroplating cell, coupling mechanism connected to the platform, an electric motor on the elastic cushion, and a flywheel with an uneven weight distribution operatively connected to the electric motor. Rotation of the unevenly distributed flywheel generates a vibration in the electroplating cell which dislodges gas bubbles that have formed between the metal target and the metal anode.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of separating Mo-99 from W-187 from a solution comprising Mo-99 and W-187. The method comprises contacting a tridentate diglycolanude ligand with a solution comprising Mo-99 and W-187 and eluting W-187 from the tridentate diglycolanude ligand to thereby an eluate comprising W-187.
