In recent years, <sup>47</sup>Sc has attracted attention because of its favorable decay characteristics (half-life, 3.35 d; average energy, 162 keV; Eγ, 159 keV) for therapeutic application and SPECT imaging. The aim the present study was to investigate suitability radionuclide therapy in a preclinical setting. For this purpose novel DOTA-folate conjugate (cm10) with an albumin-binding entity used. <b>Methods:</b><sup>47</sup>Sc produced via <sup>46</sup>Ca(n,γ)<sup>47</sup>Ca<math...

In recent years, implementation of <sup>68</sup>Ga-radiometalated peptides for PET imaging cancer has attracted the attention clinicians. Herein, we propose use <sup>44</sup>Sc (half-life = 3.97 h, average β<sup>+</sup> energy [Eβ<sup>+</sup><sub>av</sub>] 632 keV) as a valuable alternative to <sup>68</sup>Ga 68 min, Eβ<sup>+</sup><sub>av</sub> 830 and dosimetry before <sup>177</sup>Lu-based radionuclide therapy. The aim study was preclinical evaluation folate conjugate labeled with...

Exploration of the physics involved in production cosmogenic radionuclides requires experiments using same rare, radioactive nuclei sufficient quantities. For this work, such exotic have been extracted from previously proton-irradiated stainless steel samples wet chemistry separation techniques. The irradiated construction material has arisen an extended research programme at Paul Scherrer Institute, called STIP (SINQ Target Irradiation Program), where several thousand different materials...
