摘要

These days, new medical technologies using radio-isotopes (RI) have been developed for an imaging and treatment for several cancers. They have led to an increase in the usage of the enriched stable isotopes as the source materials for the radioisotopes. Especially, the radioisotope, 177{sup left}Lu, is emerging as an important candidate for a broad therapeutic use such as prostate, breast, colon, and brain cancer because of its several outstanding features [1]. 177{sup left}Lu can be produced in a reactor by a direct (n, γ) neutron radiation of the stable isotope 176{sup left}Lu. However, in the process, only about 20% of the 176{sup left}Lu atoms are converted to the radio-active 177{sup left}Lu and the long-lived impurity (177m){sup left}Lu isotopes are also produced. Moreover, it is very difficult to separate the pure 177{sup left}Lu from the remaining stable 176{sup left}Lu and the impurity radio-isotope since all the compounds are chemically equivalent. Another method for the production of 177{sup left}Lu is through an indirect process starting from the Yb isotope [2]. The stable 176{sup left}Yb isotope can be converted to 177{sup left}Yb by the (n, γ) reaction and it is spontaneously converted to 177{sup left}Lu accompanied by a β{sup}- decay with a half-life of about 2 hours. When we use this indirect process, it is feasible to separate 177{sup left}Lu from 176{sup left}Yb due to the chemical differences between Yb and Lu. Therefore, it is possible to produce a carrier-free therapeutic radioisotope 177{sup left}Lu that does not contain a non-radioactive isotope. For these reasons, it is better that we choose the indirect process using 176{sup left}Yb to produce 177{sup left}Lu. Therefore, research on the indirect process and the related chemical separation of Yb and Lu are on-going world-wide [3-4].
