  • Patent number: 8867686
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a high current solid target for radioisotope production at a cyclotron using a metal foam, and more specifically, a high current solid target for isotope production, which attaches a metal foam to the rear surface of the solid target plate. A high current solid target for isotope production including a metal foam according to the present invention may exhibit excellent cooling performances to increase the amount of proton beam current irradiated on the solid target compared to conventional planar-type solid targets. Because the irradiation of the increased proton beam current may increase the amount of an isotope produced per unit time and even an irradiation of proton beam in a short time may allow for production of a desired amount of an isotope, the solid target may be usefully used for production of medical cyclotron nuclides.

  • Publication number: 20090035201
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method of preparing a technetium-99m-labeled iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticle and a diagnostic imaging or therapeutic agent for cancer diseases comprising the nanoparticle. The 99mTc-iron oxide nanoparticle is prepared using an acidic solution or a borohydride anion exchange resin as a reducing agent, and thus, is easy to inject into the body, and its biodistribution and excretion from the body is easily predicted. The 99mTc-iron oxide nanoparticle eliminates cancerous tissues as well as enabling non-invasive real-time imaging for obtaining anatomical information about cancerous tissues and tissue functions without the need for surgery. Also, the iron oxide nanoparticle may be useful as an imaging agent for various diseases including tumors, contagious diseases and genetic defects.

  • Patent number: 6979431
    Abstract: A method for labelling a sulfide compound with technetium or rhenium, comprising the reaction of a disulfide compound with pertechnetate or perrhenate in the presence of borohydride exchange resin to obtain a complex of technetium or rhenium with the sulfide compound. The method can directly label disulfide compounds with technetium or rhenium, can skip the synthetic step of thiol-protected S-precursor, and is useful for high value-added radiopharmaceuticals.

  • Patent number: 6936240
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of preparing technetium or rhenium complex for radiopharmaceuticals, through reaction of pertechnetate or perrhenate with a ligand in the presence of a reducing agent, wherein the reducing agent is a borohydride exchange resin (BER). The borohydride exchange resin of the present invention has advantages of being stable in a wide range of Ph, including acidic or alkaline condition(Ph 2˜14) and thus being applicable to biological materials as well as being easily removable through filtration when being administrated. Also since the radiolabelled complex is produced under conditions milder than those required for the conventional reducing agents as well as has high radiochemical purity and high labeling efficiency, the conventional reducing agents can be replaced by the BER of the present invention.
