Continuous radio-HPLC — the radiochemical-purity gold standard for the daily hot lab
Radio-HPLC is the gold-standard radiochemical-purity method for radiopharmaceutical release — continuous radioactivity chromatogram identifies free radionuclide, intended product and impurity peaks in a single 10–20 min run. Eur.Ph. monographs cite the radio-HPLC method explicitly for several radiopharmaceuticals.
Per-batch [18F]FDG, [18F]NaF and emerging F-18 tracer release — radio-HPLC %RCP against the Eur.Ph. monograph threshold before despatch to the imaging room. High-energy probe captures the 511 keV annihilation line at HPLC flow rates.
Per-batch Ga-68 DOTATATE / DOTATOC / PSMA-11 release from the generator-fed labelling rig — radio-HPLC catches Ga-68 colloid and uncomplexed Ga-68 that radio-TLC may not resolve at the same threshold.
Per-batch Lu-177 DOTATATE, PSMA-617 and FAPI release — radio-HPLC complements the radio-TLC %RCP for the theranostic release record. NETTER / VISION-aligned QC programmes use both methods.
Investigator-initiated novel-chelator work, method development and stability studies — adjustable cell volume + swap-in probe means one instrument across a research-radiopharmacy programme.
21 CFR Part 11 audit trail with electronic signatures and per-method versioning supports per-batch release documentation under AERB inspection and external GMP audit.
Unlike offline TLC, radio-HPLC produces a continuous radioactivity chromatogram alongside the UV / PDA trace. Free radionuclide, intended product and impurities are resolved in one 10–20 min run — the release decision and the impurity profile come off the same chromatogram.
A swap-in scintillator probe matches the isotope energy band. Tc-99m, F-18, Ga-68, Lu-177 and Cu-64 are all read on the same instrument with the appropriate probe — capital investment scales across the full radiopharmacy isotope panel without an instrument swap.
GMP / GLP design and 21 CFR Part 11 audit-trail compliance make the release record acceptable to AERB inspection and external GMP audit. Electronic signatures, method versioning, override capture — all retained per batch.
