The reaction of a 100Mo beam at 12 MeV/nucleon impinging on a 4He gas-cell target was performed. The 99Mo alongside other coproduced isotopes were collected after the gas target on an aluminum catcher foil and their respective radioactivities were measured by offline γ-ray analysis. In this contribution, preliminary experimental results which are used to discuss the possibility of optimal large-scale production conditions of the produced radioisotopes are presented.
