About Gigabecquerels per kilogram
The gigabecquerel per kilogram (GBq/kg) equals 10⁹ Bq/kg. Characterises specific activity of cyclotron-produced short-lived nuclides: ¹⁸F batches from a medical cyclotron have specific activities of 10⁴-10⁵ GBq/µmol; ⁹⁹mTc eluates from a Mo/Tc generator are in the GBq/kg concentration range for clinical use. 1 GBq/kg = 10⁹ Bq/kg.
About Terabecquerels per kilogram
The terabecquerel per kilogram (TBq/kg) equals 10¹² Bq/kg. Applies to short-lived nuclides of high specific activity: freshly separated ¹³¹I from reactor fission exceeds 1 TBq/kg; ⁶⁰Co sealed brachytherapy sources and ¹⁹²Ir radiography sources exhibit specific activities of several TBq/g, i.e. thousands of TBq/kg. 1 TBq/kg = 10¹² Bq/kg.
