Indocyanine green icg

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States, China

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a water-soluble, near-infrared fluorescent dye used in various medical and research applications. It is a diagnostic agent that can be used to visualize blood flow and tissue perfusion. ICG absorbs and emits light in the near-infrared spectrum, making it suitable for non-invasive imaging techniques.

Coronavirus Infected Mouse Model for Targeting Efficacy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To establish coronavirus infected mouse mode, 6-week-old BALB/c female mice (purchased from Guangdong Medical Experimental Animal Center) were anesthetized with 4% chloral hydrate intraperitoneally (Sigma), and then inoculated intranasal with 15 μL of MHV (2.5 × 105 PFU). Two days after intranasal inoculation, infected mice were sacrificed, and the main organs were collected for pathologic analysis.
To evaluate targeting efficacy of PLGA@M, indocyanine Green (ICG, Sigma) loaded PLGA NPs, ICG loaded PLGA@M and free ICG (200 μL, 100 ug/mL) were injected intravenously into the coronavirus infected mice. After 12 h, treated mice were sacrificed, lungs and livers were collected and imaged with the IVIS LuminaIII Series system (PerkinElmer).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
