FIG. 14.7. Transport of <strong>90</strong> Y in stage II using 0.8M CMPO <strong>and</strong> 100% TBP.<br />

14.4.1.4. Quality of <strong>90</strong> Y<br />

Table 14.1 presents the chromatography systems that were tested <strong>for</strong><br />

determination of radionuclidic purity of <strong>90</strong> Y. For the EPC technique, BIODEX<br />

strips were used instead of Whatman No. 1 paper. This material had many<br />

advantages, <strong>and</strong> the strips were hard, thick <strong>and</strong> easy to h<strong>and</strong>le. A 0.9% sodium<br />

chloride solution was used as the solvent <strong>and</strong> the chromatogram could be<br />

developed in only 2 min instead of the 30 min needed <strong>for</strong> Whatman No. 1 paper.<br />
