Abstract

A 191Os----191mIr generator has been developed that has higher 191mIr yield and lower 191Os breakthrough than previous designs. These improvements have been realized through the use of the osmium chelate complex trans-dioxobismalonatoosmate(VI) as the parent species on the generator. The new generator provides an initial 191mIr yield of 40%/mL and 191Os breakthrough of 2-3 X 10(-3)% when eluted with a solution of 0.05 M malonic acid/0.10 M sodium chloride at pH 4. Other advantages of the new design include faster clearance of the 191Os breakthrough products and simpler assembly.
