摘要

Medical researchers are assessing the ability of several alpha-emitting radioisotopes to treat cancer and reduce tumor burden. In particular, ~(213)Bi (t_(1/2) = 45.6 min) attached to tumor specific antibodies has been under clinical investigations for treatment of certain cancers. ~(213)Bi is a decay product of ~(225)Ac (t_(1/2) = 10.0 d), itself an alpha emitter. Currently the domestically-produced supply of ~(225)Ac, however, is limited by the availability of the parent radionuclide, ~(229)Th (t_(1/2) = 7340 y). ~(229)Th, in turn, is a decay product of highly fissile ~(233)U, which is currently stored at ORNL and is now scheduled for long-term storage. In this paper we describe the primary separation of ~(229)Th from ~(233)U stockpile and further purification of this radioisotope from trace levels of uranium and plutonium. The chemical separation process is primarily based on the well known chemical behavior of these actinides on anion-exchange resins in both nitric and hydrochloric acid solutions.
