MODULAR CASSETTE SYNTHESIS UNIT

摘要

Compact modular cassette systems and methods for the synthesis of radiopharmaceutical products are provided, the compact modular cassette system including a modular unit having valve plates, a reaction cassette, a reagent pack, and other seal and connector plates to ensure that reagents can be mixed together inside one or more chambers of the reaction cassette in a timely and efficient manner. When a new chamber for each new reaction or process should be used, a valveless modular system having removable reaction cassettes and the reagent packs may be used. In such a system, the reagent container, the reaction cassette, or both, can be removed from the modular cassette system and discarded after a desired reaction or process has taken place.

主权项

1. A modular reaction system, comprising:
one or more reaction cassettes; one or more reagent packs coupled to the one or more reaction cassettes via one or more couplings; one or more mixing chambers; and one or more gaskets between adjacent reaction cassettes and/or reagent packs, the one or more gaskets being configured to prevent leakage between the adjacent reaction cassettes and/or reagent packs; wherein the one or more couplings consist of channels formed in the one or more reaction cassettes, the one or more reagent packs and the one or more gaskets, a plurality of the channels being in communication with one another to ensure fluid transfer, and the modular reaction system is configured to be releasably coupled to a computer-assisted backplane control system.
