Production, quality control and biological evaluation of 153Sm-EDTMP in wild-type rodents

  Introduction: Nowadays various bone pain palliative therapeutic agents have been developed for bone metastases. Among those, 153Sm-ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid (153Sm-EDTMP) is the major therapeutic agent which is widely used in the world. In this study, production, quality control and biodistribution studies of this therapeut...

A semiconductor solid state switch has been constructed and tested in the prototype extraction kicker pulse generator of CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) [1]. The switch is made of 10 modified 4.5 kV, 66 mm symmetric GTO's (also called FHCT-Fast High Current Thyristor), connected in series. It holds off a d.c. voltage of 30 kV and conducts a 5 μs half-sine wave current of 20 kA with an initia...

Production, formulation and quality control of [13N]NH3 compound for PET imaging of regional blood flow [Persian]

In this study, 16O(p,α)13N nuclear reaction was chosen as the best method of N-13 production. High purity natural water targets were bombarded by 18 MeV protons with an intensity of 8μA. A production yield of 13.5 mCi/μAh was obtained. Chemical modification of 13N-nitrogen oxides into [13N]NH3 was accomplished using De Varda's catalyst. Chemical, radiochemical and radionuclide purity cont...
