特性和优点

近红外成像具有更高的检测灵敏度

Pearl™ Imager系统使用了基于CCD、专门为近红外活体成像设计的光学系统。在近红外波段进行小动物活体成像时,组织的自发背景荧光和光散射比可见光区域更低,降低背景低的同时增加了检测灵敏度。而且,Pearl™ Imager系统的激发光源是近红外固态激光器,近红外激光器产生的激发光比白光具有更深的组织穿透性,即使更深层、更小的目标也能够检测到,因此,可以进行早期肿瘤检测。而且,成像的动力学范围宽,每个通道图像都具有6个数量级的动力学范围。

图示Pearl™ Imager系统非常宽的动态检测范围。IRDye800CW 染料0-10uM的浓度梯度递增成像,成像信号是目标区域总的荧光信号减去背景荧光信号。

简单、方便的操作

可分离的成像床能够快速将成像老鼠从预麻室转移到机器上进行成像,而且,成像床具有温控功能,维持成像老鼠的正常体温。
滑轮式成像抽屉,非常方便操作成像小鼠。
轻按成像床关闭按钮,然后再点击软件,无需设置曝光参数,就可以进行小动物成像。

完整解决方案
美国Li-COR公司的Pearl™ Imager小动物成像系统整合Odyssey双色红外激光成像系统组成体内和体外的多功能成像平台。该平台的体内成像或体外成像均使用该公司研发的、行业领先的IRDye染料,保证体内体外成像结果的可比性。目前,没有其他成像系统能够满足在体内和体外成像均使用同一种染料开展研究工作。

■ 应用
肿瘤成像-IRDye 800CW EGF Optical Probe

许多肿瘤(肾细胞癌、非小细胞肺癌、神经胶质瘤、卵巢癌、膀胱癌、胰腺癌、结肠癌和乳腺癌等)的发生都会出现EGFR过量表达, IRDye 800CW EGF 探针是EGFR的定把探针,该标记探针和EGFR结合,可以示踪肿瘤的发生和转移等。

肿瘤成像- IRDye 800CW 2-DG Optical Probe
肿瘤细胞的糖酵解过程一般会出现非正常的代谢旺盛。因此,可以用葡萄糖的类似物2-DG(2-deoxy-Dglucose)示踪肿瘤和肿瘤的转移。IRDye 800CW 2-DG(2-deoxy-Dglucose)光学探针被证实可以用来研究由细胞系A431(表皮癌), SW620(结肠癌), 3T3-L1, and PC3LMN4 引起的肿瘤。

Fluorescently Label Cells or Tissues for in vivo or in vitro Studies

CellVue® fluorescent imaging kits use proprietary labeling technology to stably incorporate fluorescent dyes containing long aliphatic hydrocarbon tails into lipid membranes.1 They are useful for researchers working in all aspects of science and technology where fluorescently-labeled cells and/or tissues are required. CellVue dyes also provide researchers with valuable tools for many in vivo and in vitro cell studies using fluorescent membrane labels.

CellVue® 荧光成像试剂盒使用专有的标记技术,将含有长脂肪烃尾的荧光染料稳定地掺入脂质膜中。1 它们适用于在需要荧光标记的细胞和/或组织的科学和技术的各个方面工作的研究人员。 CellVue 染料还为研究人员提供了许多使用荧光膜标记进行体内和体外细胞研究的宝贵工具。

CellVue dyes consist of long aliphatic hydrocarbon tails linked to a polar fluorescent chromophore.

  • These extremely lipophilic fluorescent dyes rapidly and stably integrate into the phospholipid membrane of cells or other membrane-containing bioparticles by non-covalent interactions
  • The dyes are stably maintained within the lipid bilayer through strong hydrophobic interactions and do not transfer into the unstained membranes of adjacent cells, which permits a labeled cell to be tracked for extended periods of time
  • The rapid incorporation of the dye allows for immediate analysis of cell functions without a waiting period
