Potential Production of Theranostic Boron Nitride Nanotubes (<sup>64</sup>Cu-BNNTs) Radiolabeled by Neutron Capture

In this work, the radioisotope <sup>64</sup>Cu was obtained from copper (II) chloride dihydrate in a nuclear research reactor by neutron capture, (<sup>63</sup>Cu(n,γ)<sup>64</sup>Cu), and incorporated into boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) using a solvothermal proc...
