Abstract Astatine-211 (211 At, t 1/2= 7.21 h) emitting two α particles with energies of 5.87
and 7.45 MeV, can lead to a high linear energy transfer (LET= 98.84 keV/µm) and short …

Abstract The alpha emitter astatine-211 (211 At) is a promising candidate for cancer
treatment based on Targeted Alpha (α) Therapy (TAT). A small number of facilities …

Developing fast and efficient separation avenues can promote either fundamental study or
practical application of astatine-211 (211 At). This work presents a new solid-phase …

Astatine is one of the least chemically studied elements and its behavior in the presence of
non-conventional solvents has not been investigated before. This work considers both …

Systematic study of astatine (At) sorption on extraction chromatography resins from nitric
acid media has been performed at Texas A&M University. This work covers commercially …

Automation of irradiated bismuth target dissolution and astatine recovery from nitric acid
media has been achieved at Texas A&M University. This process can be controlled …
