Fast production of highly concentrated reactive [18F] fluoride for aliphatic and aromatic nucleophilic radiolabelling

The use of a polymeric solid support loaded with a long alkyl chain quaternary ammonium allows the rapid and efficient recovery of cyclotron produced [18F]F- from [18O]water to a low water content organic solution compatible with fast nucleophilic labelling of most precursors for PET radiopharmaceuticals in high yield
