Characterization of solvents containing CyMe4-BTPhen in selected cyclohexanone-based diluents after irradiation by accelerated electrons

Distler P., Kondé J., John J., Hájková Z., Švehla J., Grüner B.

Radiation stability of CyMe4-BTPhen was examined in systems with three selected cyclohexanone-based diluents. Accelerated electrons were used as a source of ionizing radiation. The CyMe4-BTPhen radiation degradation identifi cation and characterization of the degradation products were performed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS) analyses. Residual concentrations of tested ligand were determined. Moreover, extraction properties of the solvents irradiated at two different doses were compared with the extraction properties of non-irradiated solvents to estimate the influence of the presence of degradation products in the organic phase.

Radiation stability of 125I-brachytherapy sources

Low energy 125I-brachytherapy sources are used for the treatment of retinoblastoma and many other forms of eye cancer. Such sources were prepared by adsorption of 125I on palladium coated silver rods and were critically evaluated for safety aspects, as per AERB standards. In order to attain low leachability and to facilitate leak free laser encapsulation of sources within titanium capsules of size 0.8 mm (f) ´ 4.75 mm (l), the radioactive source core was coated with polystyrene. With a view to study the radiation stability of such sources over a period of three weeks, both polymer coated radioactive sources and inactive source cores were separately subjected to an integrated gamma dose of ~(17.85 ´ 104) Gy (17.85 MRad), which is the dose expected to be received in three weeks from a source containing ~ 111 MBq of 125I. This was carried out to test their suitability for reuse within such period. SEM pictures of inactive source cores were taken to observe the effect of gamma radiation on palladium coating. Post-irradiation leachability and uniformity of activity of radioactive sources were evaluated and found to be satisfactory. The sources were found to be reusable safely, for repeated brachytherapy procedures over a practically useful time of at least three weeks.
