Abstract:
A method of performing a plurality of synthesis processes of preparing a radiopharmaceutical in series, which method includes carrying out a first synthesis run comprising the steps of: a) providing water containing 18F; b) trapping the 18F from the water provided in step a) on an anion exchange material; c) eluting the trapped 18F from the anion exchange material to a reaction vessel of first radiopharmaceutical synthesis cassette; d) preparing a radiopharmaceutical incorporating the eluted 18F using the first radiopharmaceutical synthesis cassette; where steps a)-d) are repeated in at least one subsequent run using another radiopharmaceutical synthesis cassette; and where the method includes a reconditioning step of treating the anion exchange material with water between two consecutive runs. Other aspects of the invention relate to a device for performing this method, and a cassette for use in the device.

Abstract:
A salt water supply unit includes a salt water plate that divides the interior of a salt water tank into a salt container and a salt water reservoir, and a salt water well that stands and penetrates the salt water plate. The salt water well accommodates a salt water valve device and a concentration detector. The salt water valve device includes a valve box having a valve hole that allows makeup water or salt water to flow therethrough, a float rod penetrating the valve hole, a valve element coupled to a first end of the float rod, and a water level detecting float coupled to a second end of the float rod. The concentration detector includes a switch that is incorporated in a stem holding a concentration detecting float. The switch outputs different detection signals in accordance with the position of the concentration detecting float.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a membrane having a first major surface and a second major surface and including one or more anionic exchange electrolyte polymers. The membranes can be useful for selectively mass transporting molecules and/or ions.
Abstract:
Provided are hydroxycucurbituril derivatives, their preparation methods and uses. The hydroxycucurbituril derivative is easy to further functionalize with enhanced solubility in common solvents, thereby providing wider applications.
Abstract:
Novel ion-exchange media are disclosed, the media comprising polymeric anisotropic microporous supports containing polymeric ion-exchange or ion-complexing materials. The supports are anisotropic, having small exterior pores and larger interior pores, and are preferably in the form of beads, fibers and sheets.
