Claims91
A method of preparing a purified, carrier-free 68Ga solution comprising:
- a) obtaining a 68Ga solution to be purified comprising 68Ga;
- b) contacting the 68Ga solution with an anion-exchange resin;
- and
- c) eluting the 68Ga from the anion-exchange resin to obtain the purified, carrier-free 68Ga solution.
A system for preparing a purified, carrier-free 68Ga solution comprising:
- a) a solid target comprising 68Zn;
- b) a cyclotron, wherein the solid target is irradiated using the cyclotron;
- and
- c) an anion-exchange resin.
