Abstract
PEMBUATAN RADIONUKLIDA MOLIBDENUM-99 (99Mo) HASIL AKTIVASI NEUTRON DARI MOLIBDENUM ALAM UNTUK MEMPEROLEH TEKNESIUM-99m (99mTc). Pembatasan penggunaan uranium sebagai target untuk produksi 99mTc menyebabkan rumah sakit di Indonesia kesulitan mendapatkan pasokan 99mTc. Saat ini 99mTc diperoleh dari 99Mo hasil fisi (pembelahan uranium). Pembuatan radionuklida 99Mo dari aktivasi neutron molibdenum alam (MoO3) di teras reaktor G.A Siwabessy digunakan sebagai metode alternatif untuk memperoleh 99mTc. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk melakukan pembuatan radionuklida 99Mo dari aktivasi neutron molibdenum alam untuk memperoleh 99mTc. Serbuk MoO3 alam sebanyak 5 gram dikemas dalam ampul kuarsa dan dimasukkan ke dalam inner capsul selanjutnya dikemas menggunakan outer capsul sebagai bahan target. Bahan target diiradiasi di reaktor G.A Siwabessy selama 100 jam. Hasil perhitungan diperoleh aktivitas 99Mo sebesar 65 % dari nilai maksimum yang dapat diperoleh. MoO3 paska iradiasi dilarutkan dengan NaOH 4 M sehingga diperoleh larutan natrium molibdat (Na2MoO4). Radionuklida 99Mo dan 99mTc diukur menggunakan spektrometer gamma. Radionuklida 99Mo terdeteksi dalam produk larutan Na2MoO4 dengan aktivitas jenis 99Mo yang diperoleh sebesar 0,81 Ci 99Mo/g Mo. Radionuklida anak luruh 99mTc dipisahkan dari radionuklida induk 99Mo menggunakan kolom pemisah yang berisi material berbasis zirkonium (MBZ) sebagai penyerap 99Mo. Radionuklida 99mTc hasil pemisahan diperoleh dalam bentuk natrium pertehnetat (Na99mTcO4).dengan recovery yang masih rendah yaitu sekitar 52 hingga 71 %.Kata kunci: Molibdenum, teknesium, radionuklida, pemisahan, iradiasi. PRODUCTION OF ACTIVATED NEUTRON MOLYBDENUM-99 (99Mo) RADIONUCLIDE FROM NATURAL MOLYBDENUM TO OBTAIN TECHNETIUM-99m (99mTc). Uranium usage restriction causes the hospitals in indonesia difficult to obtain the suply of 99mTc. At Present, 99mTc is obtanied from molybdenum as a uranium fission product. Production of 99Mo radionuclide resulted from neutron activated natural molybdenum (MoO3) in G.A Siwabessy reactor could be used as a alternatif method for producing 99mTc. The aim of this research is synthesize of 99Mo radionuclide from neutron activated natural molybdenum (MoO3) to obtain 99mTc. The five grams of MoO3 powder was packed in a quartz ampule and inserted into inner capsule then also inserted into outer capsule as a target material. It was iradiated in G.A Siwabessy reactor for 100hours. Based on theoritical calculation, about 65 % of maximum 99Mo activity could be recovered. After Irradiation, MoO3 was dissolved by NaOH 4 M solution so it was natrium molybdate (Na2MoO4) solution. 99Mo and 99mTc radionuclide were analyzed using gamma spectrometer. 99Mo radionuclide was detected on Na2MoO4 solution as product that had specific activity of 0.81 Ci 99Mo/ g Mo. 99mTc as daughter radionuclide was separated from 99Mo as parent radionuclide using separated column containing zirconium based material (ZBM) as 99Mo adsobent. 99mTc radionuclide has been succesfully separated using ZBM column although recovery of 99mTc was quite low in which approximately 52 to 71 %. The 99mTc radionuclide was recovered in the form of sodium pertechnetate (NaTcO4) solution.Keywords: Molybdenum, technetium, radionuclide, separation, irradiation.
