Isotope Program Sr-89 Samples Available for Evaluation
The DOE Isotope Program is developing production of strontium-89 (Sr-89) and will engage in routine production if there is sufficient demand. The National Isotope Development Center is planning to have millicurie quantities of non-GMP strontium-89 (Sr-89) solution available for evaluation by potential users. The distribution of samples is planned for mid-January, 2016. Please reply to contact@isotopes.gov to make arrangements if you are interested in receiving a sample.
