Tc (technetium-99m) is the most widely used radioisotope in radiopharmaceutical and is decayed from the parent nuclide Mo (molybdenum-99). Most of Mo is generated as one of the fission products of uranium, but recently, from the viewpoint of nuclear security and nuclear nonproliferation, a uranium-free Mo production method is desired. One such method is the (n,) method, in which Mo is irradiated by neutrons. However, since the specific activity of Mo produced by this method is extremely low, it is necessary to improve the Mo adsorption and Tc elution property of alumina (AlO), which is used as a Mo adsorbent, to apply this method to the Mo/Tc generator, a device for separation and concentration of Tc from Mo. Therefore, the objective of this thesis is to elucidate the parameters effective for improving the performance of alumina for the practical use of the Mo/Tc generator using the (n,) method, and to contribute to the development of alumina columns that may be applicable to low specific activity Mo. In this study, alumina with different starting materials was prepared and its applicability as Mo adsorbent for Mo/Tc generator was evaluated. The effects of crystal structure and specific surface area of alumina on Mo adsorption properties were clarified, and the Mo adsorption mechanism was elucidated based on the results of surface analysis of alumina. In addition, Tc elution properties and Tc solution quality were evaluated using MoO irradiated in the Kyoto University Research Reactor (KUR), and a new column shape with potential application to generators was proposed based on the experiment results of alumina columns designed for current generators.

Project 6 Meeting Members for Tsukuba International Strategic Zone
JAEA-Review 2021-016, 102 Pages, 2021/11
In December 2011, the Prime Minister designated Tsukuba and some areas in Ibaraki Prefecture as "Comprehensive Special Zones". In the Tsukuba International Strategic Zone, nine advanced research and development (R&D) projects are underway with the goal of promoting industrialization of life innovation and green innovation utilizing the science and technology in Tsukuba. In these projects, the domestic production of medical radioisotope (Technetium-99m, Tc) was certified as a new project in October 2013, and R&D have been performed in collaboration with related organizations with Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) as the project leader. Japan is the third largest consumer of molybdenum-99 (Mo) after the United States and Europe, and all Mo are imported. Supply will be insufficient if overseas reactors are shut down due to trouble or if transportation (air and land transportations) is stopped due to volcanic eruptions and some accidents. Thus, early domestic production of Mo is strongly required. This project is a technology development aimed at domestic production of Mo, which is a raw material of Tc used as a diagnostic agent. This report summarizes the activities carried out in the first and second phase of the domestic production of medical radioisotope (Tc) (here referred to as the "Project 6") in Tsukuba International Strategic Zone (FY2014-2020).

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:16.14(Materials Science, Ceramics)Pulsed electric current sintering of molybdenum trioxide (MoO) was carried out by one- and two-step pressuring methods for fabrication of irradiation target using production of Mo and Tc nuclear medicine. At 550C by the two-step pressurizing method, a relative density of 93.1% was obtained while, by the one-step pressurization method, the relative density was 76.9%. Direct sample temperature measurements were conducted by inserting a thermocouple in a punch. By the two-step pressurizing method, the sample temperature was higher than that by the one-step pressurizing method even almost the same die temperature. From voltage and current waveforms, it was thought that the conductivity of the sample increased by the two-step pressurizing method to increase the sample temperature and the relative density. The two-step pressurization method enables us to prepare dense targets at a low temperature from recycled and coarse-grained Mo enriched MoO powder.

In recent years, the Compton camera which is originally developed for the astrophysical studies was applied for medical diagnostic usage. For the Compton camera imaging require technetium isotopes emitting higher energy -rays. Two Tc isotopes, Tc (T = 60 d; E = 204, 582 and 835 keV) and Tc(T = 4.28 d, E = 778 and 812 keV) are candidates for Compton camera imaging. Compton camera imaging can realize high position resolution without collimator. Because of no collimator using, the Compton camera makes higher -ray detection efficiency. Compared with SPECT with Tc, the Compton camera imaging technique can be expected that radiation exposure deduce to 1/5-1/10. In this study, technetium-95m was produced by the Mo(p,n)Tc reaction.
