STUDY ON PREPARATION OF 32P-CHROMIC PHOSPHATE RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL IN DALAT NUCLEAR REACTOR FOR CANCER TREATMENT
Main Article Content
Abstract
In this article, the radiopharmaceutical 32P-Chromic phosphate was synthesized in Dalat Nuclear Reactor for studying and optimizing synthetic experimental parameters. Radiochemical purity was tested by paper chromatography with the Cyclone Plus Phosphor Scanner. Radionuclidic purity was tested on Aloka beta spectrometer. Sterility was performed by sterile testing. Bacterial endotoxins were experimented on Endosafe-PTS 100 (Portable Test System, PTS). The radiopharmaceutical 32P-Chromic phosphate synthesized achieved an overall efficiency of 87,67%, radionuclidic purity of 99,90%, radiochemical purity of 99,50%, bacterial endotoxins of 0,066 EU/ml/kg, and sterility. Thus, the radiopharmaceutical 32P-Chromic phosphate meets the standards of American Pharmacopoeia 35 in cancer treatment.
