  • Abstract
    The synthesis of [18F]FDG using tetrabutylammonium bicarbonate has been successfully modified to accommodate automation using the Optomux® control system. Noteworthy changes to the methods previously reported are the addition of a small ion exchange column which serves to quantitatively trap [18F]fluoride from the target water and the extensive use of thermocouple and radiation detector feedback for process control. The radiochemical yields observed over 30 runs are: 50.3 ± 9% decay corrected and 34.6 ± 6% decay uncorrected.
