“We are excited to collaborate with Purdue University’s prestigious College of Pharmacy in advancing educational initiatives in nuclear pharmacy,” said Stephen Merrick, President and CEO of NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes. “NorthStar is committed to delivering innovative technology solutions for the nuclear medicine community, and this cooperative effort between industry and academia provides students with experience in being part of the solution. Because the RadioGenix System uses non-uranium based molybdenum-99 (Mo-99), it ensures that radiopharmacies can have stable, reliable access to domestically produced Mo-99 to produce Tc-99m. This in turn enables reliable scheduling of procedures to meet patients’ healthcare needs in a timely manner.”

About the RadioGenix® System
The RadioGenix System is an innovative, high tech separation platform that is approved for processing non-uranium/non-highly enriched uranium molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) for the production of the important medical radioisotope, technetium-99m (Tc-99m). Prior to availability of RadioGenix technology, the U.S. supply chain for Mo-99 has been subject to frequent and sometimes severe interruptions which negatively impact patient healthcare. Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2018, the RadioGenix System is the first and only on-site, automated isotope separation system of its kind for use with non-uranium/non-highly enriched uranium based Mo-99, designed to help alleviate shortage situations and expand domestic supply.
