Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Rubidium-82 is produced through beta plus decay from its parent nucleus, strontium-82. The generator contains accelerator produced 82Sr adsorbed on stannic oxide in a lead-shielded column and provides a means for obtaining sterile nonpyrogenic solutions of RbCl(Halide salt form capable of injection).
Detailed explanation-2: -Rb-82 is a monovalent cation analog of potassium. It is commercially available as a strontium-82 generator. Its physical half-life is 75 seconds.
