“…Usually 115 Cd is produced by the 114 Cd(n,y) 115 Cd reaction in a reactor. 115 Cd can also be produced on the photonuclear reaction 116 Cd(y,n) 115 Cd [1], Various methods for the separation of 115m In using ion exchange [2][3][4] and solvent extraction [5] have been reported in the literature. 115 Cd produced by the (n,y) or (y,n) reactions has always a low specific activity, ion exchangers having high capacity for Cd are therefore preferred.…”
