Abstract
A method is presented for the production and separation of carrier free 109Cd, 57Co and 54Mn from a deuteron bombarded composite enriched silver-109 and iron-56 cyclotron target. Silver is removed from the matrix by reduction with hydrazine and the following ion exchange separation employs cation and anion exchange columns in tandem using hydrochloric acid/acetone and hydrobromic/nitric acid as the main eluting agents for the two respective columns. Overall efficiency rates for the three product radionuclides are in excess of 99%.
