16:0 PE-DTPA (Gd)

16:0 PE-DTPA (Gd) may be used in the preparation of gadolinium-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic (Gd-DTPA)-loaded mannosylated liposomes.

1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (PE-DTPA) along with Gd-DTPA, an imaging reagent exhibit high molecular relaxivity and enhance spin-lattice" relaxation time (T1WI) contrast for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
