The preparation of carrier-free add germanium-68 by the nuclear reaction69Ga(p
3n)69Ge in Cyclone-30 was studied. A semi-automatic device for producinggermanium-68 was developed. The solid target which was an alloy of Ga4Ni wasobtained. After bombardment with 20MeV protons
the irradiated target wasdissolved in nitric acid and separated utilizing a liquid-liquid extraction systemgiving a recovery of 91% of the germanium-68 product.
