Uses
A carbocyanine-based dye for fluorescence optical imaging. It is a highly hydrophilic derivative based on a carbocyanine chromophore identical to ICG, and showing a low plasma binding of ~10%. It has an estimated blood half-life of ~200 min, is 60 times more biocompatible than ICG, less toxic, and has a significantly greater fluorescent yield compared with ICG. Its absorption and emission maximum wavelenghts are 800 and 830 nm respectively.
