Ge-68 HALF        270.95 days
Ga-68 HALF        67.71 minutes

The parent radionuclide Ge-68 has a half-life of 270.95 days which ensures the cost-effective availability of 68Ga within the PET facility, where it can be used as the source of Ga-68 for at least 1 year.
Gallium-68 (with a half-life of only 67.71 minutes) can be easily eluted from the generator any time at the site of application and can be used for different purposes.

 Available parent isotope's activity:

• 10 mCi (370 MBq)
• 20 mCi (740 MBq)
• 30 mCi (1110 MBq)
• 40 mCi (1480 MBq)
• 50 mCi (1850 MBq)  
  

Ge-68/Ga-68 Generator with customized activities are available upon request.

100 mCi (3700 MBq)The Ga-68 generator of a chromatographic type is a glass column with a sorbent based on modified titanium dioxide. The parent radionuclide Ge-68 is fixed on this sorbent.
The column is placed into the lead shielding container and provided with eluent and eluate lines.
Ga-68 is eluted from the column by 0.1 M HCI.

Weight: 11,7 kg

The parent radioisotope, Ge-68 is produced in a cyclotron.
During the elution, Ge-68 disintegrates 100% by electron capture to the Ga-68. Ga-68 emits positrons with 89% positron branching accompanied by 1,077 keV photon emission of low (3.22%) abundance
