Abstract

Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) are needed in various fields, especially in the biomedical field. CuO NPs was obtained from Aspergillus terreus filtrate. CuO NPs structure was confirmed by UV–Vis spectrophotometry, as well as Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD offers the nanoparticles purity of CuO biosynthesis. CuO NPs are spherical when examined with TEM. The average size of CuO NPs from TEM was 15.75 ± 3.95 nm. New composite of P (AA-AN)-NPs CuO was synthesized by biotechnology and the induced γ-radiation. The distribution coefficient value (Kd) of 47Sc(III) as well as 47Ca(II) ions for the synthetic new composite was determined by batch technique. Radiochemical separation of 47Sc(III) from irradiated calcium target was studied using chromatographic column packed with the new composite material. The recovery yield of 78 ± 1.2% for 47Sc(III) was obtained using 1 M HCl. The quality control tests (chemical, radionuclide and radiochemical purities) of the eluted 47Sc confirmed that it's adequate for nuclear medicine applications.
