9 ɣ- minigita Star ɣ- radioactivity-tlc-scanner, BGO scintillation crystal APPLICATION ɣ radioactivity TLC KeV, BGO radiochemical purity single trace TLC one plate 200 x 200 mm multiple nuclide GENERAL DESCRIPTION FEATURES minigita Star is a scanning device, which moves a radioactivity detector along one trace from start to front. The repeated, fast, continuous detection from start to front and back compensates automatically the radioactive decay of the compound over the scan length. For ɣ- nuclides, minigita Star is using a scintillation probe with a BGO crystal. Due to its density, BGO has a quite high stopping power for gamma radiation and a reasonable energy resolution. BGO is mechanically stable and non hydroscopic. Relative small size and special shape enable a sophisticated design of the scintillation probe. There are 5 mechanical collimators designed for the energy ranges of 0-60 kev, kev, kev, kev, > 450 kev. Depending on the radiation energy of the radioactive compound, the suitable collimator is inserted into the detector. Simple tools help to keep the distance exactly the same between the sample surface and detector entry window. one trace scan 25 x 200 mm automatic energy calibration extremely high counting rate dead time correction automatic decay correction live display on screen peak integration, TLC evaluation limit-of detection calculation minigita Star offers a calibration and sensitivity self check. Using a suitable reference standard and running the calibration program will result in an energy spectrum scan and calibration. After a scan the TLC-plate can be moved manually to the following trace and the next TLC can be examined. The chromatogram is displayed live on the screen of the connected PC. Peak integration and evaluation can be performed manually or automatically. The measurement and data handing is digital (single event counting) and limit of detection can be determined for every small peak. 54

11 GITA Star ɣ- radioactivity-multi-tlc-scanner, BGO scintillation detector APPLICATION ɣ radioactivity TLC radiochemical purity multiple trace TLC 2 plates 200 x 200 mm multiple nuclides GENERAL DESCRIPTION FEATURES GITA Star is a scanning device, which moves the radioactivity detector along one trace from start to front and goes to the next pre-programmed trace position and scans that trace with individual nuclide settings. For ɣɣ- nuclides, GITA Star is using a scintillation probe with a BGO crystal. Due to its density, BGO has a quite high stopping power for radiation and a resonable energy resolution. BGO is mechanically stable and non-hydroscopic. Relative small size and special shape enable a sophisticated design of the scintillation probe. 80 trace scans on 2 TLC plates 200 x 200 mm automatic energy calibration extremely high counting rate dead time correction automatic decay correction live display on screen peak integration, TLC evaluation limit-of detection calculation There are 5 mechanical collimators designed for the energy ranges of 0-60 kev, kev, kev, kev, >450 kev. Depending on the radiation energy of the radioactive compound, the suitable collimator is inserted into the detector. Simple tools help to keep the distance exactly the same between the sample surface and detector entry window. GITA Star offers a calibration and sensitivity check by a reference source. After all traces of one TLC plate 200 x 200 mm are ready, the second TLC-plate 200 x 200 mm can be measured. A single chromatogram can be displayed live on the screen of the connected PC. Multiple traces can be displayed 3- dimensional. Peak integration and evaluation can be performed manually or automatically. The measurement and data handling is digital (single event counting) and limit of detection can be determined for every small peak. scintillation probe 18 F linearity on TLC 56
