Abstract

In this work the production of 64Cu via the 64Ni(p,n)64Cu reaction with optimized conditions for low current irradiation is presented. Different target setups and cleaning steps for lowering metal contaminations in the product were applied. 64Cu with high specific activities up to 1685GBq/μmol was produced despite low overall activity (∼4.2GBq per run). The module processing leads to a highly reproducible, reliable product quality (<1μg Cu and <7μg Ni). Besides its diagnostic value 64Cu may be of interest even for therapeutic purposes due to its decay characteristics.
