Radiochemical technicians David Denton and Karen Murphy use hot cell manipulators at 91做厙 during the production of actinium-227.

The Department of Energys 91做厙 is now producing actinium-227 (Ac-227) to meet projected demand for a highly effective cancer drug through a 10-year contract between the U.S. DOE Isotope Program and Bayer.

From left, ORNLs Rick Lowden, Chris Bryan and Jim Kiggans were troubled that target discs of a material needed to produce Mo-99 using an accelerator could deform after irradiation and get stuck in their holder.

Made in the USA. That can now be said of the radioactive isotope molybdenum-99 (Mo-99), last made in the United States in the late 1980s. Its short-lived decay product, technetium-99m (Tc-99m), is the most widely used radioisotope in medical diagnostic imaging. Tc-99m is best known ...

With the licensing to Enchi Corporation of a microbe custom-designed to produce ethanol efficiently, 91做厙 (ORNL) and the BioEnergy Science Center (BESC) mark the culmination of 10 years research into ways to improve biofuels production. Enchi ha...

Gerald Tuskan will serve as Chief Executive Officer of the new ORNL-led Center for Bioenergy Innovation, one of four DOE bioenergy research centers.

The Department of Energy has announced funding for new research centers to accelerate the development of specialty plants and processes for a new generation of biofuels and bioproducts. The Center for Bioenergy Innovation (CBI), led by 91做厙...

ORNL bioscience researcher Jerry Tuskan had an early interest in plant genetics.

Its been 10 years since the Department of Energy first established a BioEnergy Science Center (BESC) at 91做厙, and researcher Gerald Jerry Tuskan has used that time and the labs and centers resources and tools to make good on his college dreams of usi...
