The excitation functions for the production of 66Ga and some other radionuclides produced by the 4He-particle bombardment of a natural copper target have been measured up to 31 MeV incident energy. The radiochemical separation of 66Ga from the irradiated copper target as well as from the other radionuclides formed is described. The yield of 66Ga at 18 MeV incident energy is 708 microCi/microAh at end of bombardment and the contamination of 67Ga is 0.25%. The intended use of the 66Ga produced is to label monoclonal antibodies for PET scanning.
已测量了天然铜靶在4He粒子轰击下产生66Ga及其他一些放射性核素的激发函数，入射能量高达31 MeV。描述了从辐照铜靶以及从形成的其他放射性核素中进行66Ga的放射化学分离。在轰击结束时，入射能量为18 MeV时66Ga的产率为708微居里/微安，67Ga的污染率为0.25%。所产生的66Ga的预期用途是标记用于PET扫描的单克隆抗体。
