(61)Cu(2+) was eluted from a cation exchange resin column by 0.2 M HCl with 90% acetone, while Co(2+) remained on the column. The whole separation process was completed within 50 min at more than 72% yield. The Co(2+) impurity level in (61)Cu(2+) solution was reduced to less than 0.1 ppm. Highly pure (61)Cu(2+) solution was then applied to prepare (61)Cu-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA)-human serum albumin (HSA) which showed good blood pool imaging properties.}, pages = {511--515}, title = {Cation exchange separation of 61Cu2+ from natCo targets and preparation of 61Cu-DOTA-HSA as a blood pool agent}, volume = {67}, year = {2008} }
