Methods for producing a radioisotope by a charged particle irradiation of a fluid target matrix are provided. A method of producing a radioisotope includes irradiating a fluid target matrix comprising a compound of a target isotope with a charged particle beam to transform at least a portion of the target isotope to the radioisotope, and isolating the radioisotope from the irradiated fluid target matrix. The target isotope may be an isotope of cadmium, an isotope of thallium, an isotope of zinc, an isotope of gallium, an isotope of tellurium, an isotope of molybdenum, an isotope of rhodium, an isotope of selenium, an isotope of nickel, an isotope of yttrium, an isotope of strontium, an isotope of bismuth, an isotope of tungsten, and an isotope of titanium, provided that the target isotope is not Mo-100.
