Cyclotron production of carrier-free cobalt-55, a new positron-emitting label for bleomycin

Calculation and evaluation of cross-sections for p+54,56,57,58,natFe reactions up to 250MeV

“…23. The calculated results are in good agreement with experimental data [66,68,76,[78][79][80][81]83,84,[86][87][88][89] for incident proton energy below 250 MeV. The calculated results for nat Fe(p, x) 55 Co reaction cross-sections are larger than experimental data above 20.0 MeV as shown in Fig.…”

“…11. The experimental data [62,64,66,[68][69][70] for 56 Fe(p, 2n) 55 Co reaction were given in different laboratories, and are inconsistent with each other. The present theoretical calculated results (Fig.…”

Excitation Functions of Proton Induced Reactions on Highly Enriched 58Ni with Special Relevance to the Production of 55Co and 57Co

“…It has found application mainly in labelling of bleomycin [cf. [1][2][3][4] and, in recent years, in tumour imaging [cf. 5] as well as in some cardiac and cerebral studies [cf.…”
