A solvent extraction-based procedure for removal of < sup > 46 < /sup > Sc impurity from reactor produced [ < sup > 45 < /sup > Ca]CaCl < sub > 2 < /sub > for its potential use in bone pain palliation

In this study, we have optimized a single-step solvent extraction procedure for complete removal of 46Sc impurity from [45Ca]CaCl2. The purified radiotracer was administered intravenously in normal Wistar rats and preferential bone uptake could be demonstrated by ex vivo biodistribution studies.PMID:35792353 | DOI:10.1016/j.apradiso.2022.110352
