Radiochemistry

Abstract

This section of Annual Reports will review recent progress in radiochemistry, including isotope production and separation, the preparation of labelled molecules and especially radiopharmaceuticals, as well as environmental aspects of the subject. Radiation chemistry (unless related to the stability of labelled molecules), the use of labelled compounds as tracers, nuclear activation analysis and the inorganic chemistry of elements that are, by their nature, radioactive are all excluded.
