Preparation of Fluorine-18 [PDF]
Fluorine-18 was prepared by neutron irradiation of lithium carbonate in the reactor JRR-1. Five grams of lithium carbonate was irradiated for 2hr with a thermal neutron flux of 6×1011 n/cm2/sec. An alumina column was used to separate 18F from the irradiated material.

Fluorine-18 Radiochemistry, Labeling Strategies and Synthetic Routes [PDF]
Fluorine-18 is the most frequently used radioisotope in positron emission tomography (PET) radiopharmaceuticals in both clinical and preclinical research. Its physical and nuclear characteristics (97% β(+) decay, 109.7 min half-life, 635 keV positron energy), along with high specific activity and ease of large scale production, make it an attractive ...
