Determination of germanium isotope abundances and specific activity in accelerator produced germanium-68

Germanium-68 was produced by irradiation of a gallium target at a linear accelerator and purified by a two-step process involving leaching followed by chromatography. Germanium isotope abundances and specific activities of purified 68 Ge were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometr...

Zusammenfassung:Germanium-68 was produced by irradiation of a gallium target at a linear accelerator and purified by a two-step process involving leaching followed by chromatography. Germanium isotope abundances and specific activities of purified 68 Ge were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (Perkin Elmer ICP-MS ELAN DRC) and gamma spectroscopy. The germanium abundances were: 68 Ge (29.7–60.9 %) 69 Ge (
