Solid target processing system for radionuclide production
In radiopharmaceutical production, obtaining pure and high-quality radionuclides is crucial. Traditional manual processes can lead to cross-contamination, inconsistent yields, and operator exposure to radioactive materials, necessitating a more controlled and automated solution.
Automates radiopharmaceutical radionuclide production
The ALCEO is a fully automated solid target processing system developed by Comecer for producing radionuclides used in radiopharma. It offers an integrated approach, combining multiple processing steps without manual intervention, thereby reducing contamination risks. This system is configurable based on isotope type, specific production needs, and can use disposable cassettes for processes. It caters to production processes for isotopes like 61Cu, 64Cu, 89Zr, 124I, 123I, 68Ga, 44Sc, 86Y, and 45Ti. The system is compatible with commercial cyclotrons with energy ranging from 5 to 30 MeV and features independent water and helium cooling systems. The ALCEO includes modules for plating, irradiation, dissolution, transfer, and storage, offering flexibility. Metal and Halogen systems are available for specific isotopes, ensuring efficient production of multiple radionuclides within a single system.
