Description

Gallium Trichloride-Ga67 is a radioactive diagnostic agent where the gallium-67 isotope is complexed with trichloride. This compound is crucial for nuclear medicine applications, particularly in diagnostic imaging and radiopharmaceutical research. It is primarily needed by pharmaceutical manufacturers, radiopharmacies, and research institutions specializing in oncology and infection imaging.

Application

• Radiopharmaceutical Synthesis: A key precursor for the preparation of Gallium-67 labeled radiopharmaceuticals used in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT).
• Oncological Diagnostics: Used in the development of imaging agents for the detection, staging, and monitoring of various cancers, including lymphoma and soft tissue sarcomas.
• Infection Imaging: Serves as a base for agents targeting sites of occult infection and inflammation, such as osteomyelitis and fever of unknown origin.
• Research & Development: Essential for academic and industrial R&D in nuclear chemistry, exploring new chelation chemistries and targeted molecular imaging probes.
• Quality Control Reference: Acts as a reference standard in the quality control and validation of other gallium-based radiopharmaceutical production processes.

Quality Control

Our Gallium Trichloride-Ga67 is produced and tested under strict quality management systems to ensure it meets the exacting standards required for pharmaceutical and diagnostic use. Each batch is subjected to rigorous analytical procedures, including radionuclidic purity, radiochemical purity, and specific activity determination. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided, detailing all test results against predefined specifications to ensure traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a designated, shielded radioactive materials area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) or as specified on the label. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the product must be kept in a dry environment. All handling and storage must comply with local and international regulations for radioactive materials.
