Making medicine solving the problems of molybdium-99 production [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
The United States currently receives more than 90% of its molybdium-99 from outside sources like Canada and the U.K. Moly-99, as it is called, is a key ingredient for many chemotherapy treatments and medical imaging techniques; it is however...
Computational Evaluation of LEU Conversion for Production of Tc-99m. [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2006)
The imaging radioisotope Technetium-99m (Tc-99m) is currently being used about 10,000 times daily in the United States. There are no facilities in the U.S. capable of producing Tc-99m, rather the parent nuclide Molybdenum-99 must be imported from...
Evaluation of [99mTC(CO)3]-labeled ERBB-2-targeting peptides for breast carcinoma imaging [abstract]
(2010)
The purpose of this study was to radiolabel a novel ErbB-2-avid peptide, discovered
from bacteriophage display, with [99mTc(H2 O)3 (CO)3 ]+ and evaluate the in vitro cellular targeting and in vivo tumor imaging properties of the peptide in a mouse...
Thermal mehcanical hydraulic experimental tools for molybdenum-99 production target analysis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
done much for the progression of nuclear materials, associated technologies must first be tested and qualified before they will see any practical use. Technetium-99m (99mTc) is a diagnostic radiopharmaceutical that is currently used about 100,000 times...
Thermal-hydraulic optimization for high production of low-enriched uranium based molybdenum-99
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
. In an attempt to address the growing demand, as well as to motivate the current reactors to stop using high-enriched uranium, the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR) has begun to produce molybdenum-99 using low-enriched uranium. The fission of uranium...
Engineering review and calibration of devices to measure coolant flow through irradiation positions at MURR [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2006)
producers use High Enriched Uranium (HEU) to create the Mo-99. In an attempt to demonstrate a method that does not use weapons-grade uranium, the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR) is trying to produce Mo-99 isotopes by irradiating Low Enriched...
Target test tube assembly process and design for the development of molybdenum-99 [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2007)
Molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) is used to create Tc-99, a widely used nuclear medicine diagnostic imaging radioisotope. In an attempt to decrease the need for imported Mo-99, development of mechanical systems to efficiently prepare low enriched uranium (LEU...
Target test tube assembly process and design for the development of molybdenum-99 [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2008)
Molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) is used to create Tc-99m, a widely used nuclear medicine diagnostic imaging radioisotope. In an attempt to decrease the need for imported Mo-99, development of mechanical systems to efficiently prepare low enriched uranium (LEU...
Missouri broiler test, 1954.
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1954)
New Tc-99m carbonyl complexes of SN bifunctional ligands [abstract]
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2004)
Technetium-99m one of the most attractive radioisotopes for use in imaging applications. For a radiopharmaceutical to be useful and effective for use under in vivo conditions, it is imperative to have high kinetic stability for the Technetium compounds...
