Table 3. Separation Yield and Radionuclidic Purity of 47Ca for Three Separation Methodsa.
| separation method | average separation yield (%) | LOD for 47Ca (%) | radionuclidic purity (%) | LOD for 43K (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 100 ± 1 | 0.9 | 100 ± 4 | 0.5 |
| 2 | 100 ± 2 | 0.5 | 100 ± 4 | 1 |
| 3 | 99 ± 2 | 0.8 | 100 ± 5 | 0.9 |
Separation method 1 used DGA resin with HNO3/HCl, 2 used AG MP-50 resin with an HCl gradient, and 3 used AG MP-50 resin with HCl/methanol gradient.
