AGREEMENT STATE REPORT - Mo-99/Tc-99 BREAKTHROUGH LIMIT EXCEEDED.
The following report was received via e-mail:
"On March 7, 2019, the Ohio Department of Health received a phone notification from Cardinal Health stating the first elution on 2/26/2019 from the NorthStar RadioGenix Mo-99/Tc-99m generator exceeded breakthrough limits in Ohio Administrative Code 3701:1-58-35 (10 CFR 35.204). The measured breakthrough was 0.252 microCuries Mo-99 per milliCurie Tc-99m. Cardinal Health stated this was an isolated event and all other elutions have been within the limits. The licensee is using the elution for research only; it is not for human use. Cardinal Health has contacted the manufacture to determine the cause."
