99Mo/99mTc generator and radiopharmaceuticals productions at Çekmece Nuclear Research and Training Center

Abstract
Molybdenum-99 is produced in large quantities as the parent radioisotope of " mTc, which has been used in nuclear medicine. The rapid growth of nuclear medical diagnosis with " mTc is due to completion of a system supplying radiopharmaceuticals labelled with a short lived radioisotope like " mTc, and the development of nuclear medical instruments like an Anger Camera and a single photon emission tomography (SPECT or ECT). The Radioisotope and Radiopharmaceutical Department (RIF) at Çekmece Nuclear Research and Training Center (ÇNAEM) has been active in production of " mTc and kits to be labelled to form radiopharmaceuticals. In generator produced eluates, the purity and chemical parameters must conform to special requirements. The requirements of European Pharmacopoeia for sodium pertechnetate " mTc injection are fulfdled when it is prepared in our department. Assurance of radiopharmaceutical quality control, which involve test of biolog ical purity and pyrogenity and sterility, is also performed
