| Popis: | Copper-64 is a radionuclide suitable for labeling of a wide range of radiopharmaceuticals for PET imaging, as well as systemic or local radioimmunotherapy of tumors. Among the possible methods for cyclotron production of No Carrier Added (NCA) 64Cu (61Cu), we investigated the deuteron irradiation on natural Zn target, via (d,axn) and (d,2pxn) nuclear reactions. This paper reports the preliminary results about the experimental determination and theoretical calculation of thin-target excitation functions in the energy range up to 19 MeV for 61Cu, 64Cu, 66Ga, 67Ga, 65Zn and 69mZn. A fast selective radiochemical separation of NCA 64Cu from Zn target and Ga radionuclides, with quality control tests is described too. |
