Abstract

The results of an experiment to verify a complex technology for isolating 177Lu from an irradiated 1-g ytterbium target are presented. The main components of the experimental installation, which is mounted in a research hot cell, are described. These include the extraction and separation of lutetium and ytterbium, the evaporation and concentration of 177Lu, and its chromatographic purification. The feasibility of obtaining a pharmaceutical substance “no-carrier-added lutetium-177 trichloride” that meets the standards set by the European Pharmacopoeia has been confirmed.
