A cerium-based metal-organic framework as adsorbent for the ⁹⁹Mo/^99mTc generator

The cerium-based metal–organic framework UiO-66 (Ce) was examined as a potential adsorbent for the ⁹⁹Mo/^99mTc generator. The results showed that the adsorbent had an outstanding adsorption performance, reaching up to 475 mg/g adsorption capacity at pH 3. An adsorption mechanism was proposed, where the adsorption was...

Adsorption of molybdenum on Zr-based MOFs for potential application in the ⁹⁹Mo/^99mTc generator

The potential of the metal–organic framework UiO-66 and its functionalized derivatives for their utilization in the ⁹⁹Mo/^99mTc generator was assessed. Molybdenum adsorption experiments, structure characterization, molecular simulations and column experiments with molybdenum-99 were carried out. The results showed that...
