After open chest fluorescence imaging, complete lungs were harvested and fluorescence was quantified using the FMT 2500 or Odyssey imaging systems (LI-COR Inc.). Near-infrared images were obtained in the 680- and 700-nm channels, respectively.
Mmpsense 750 fast
MMPSense 750 FAST is a fluorescent imaging agent designed for the in vivo detection of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity. It is a non-invasive tool that can be used to visualize and quantify MMP activity in real-time.

. We used near-infrared fluorescent nanoparticles: Aminospark 680 (Ex/Em=673/690 nm) and MMPSense 750 FAST (Ex/Em=749/775 nm) (PerkinElmer Inc., Waltham, MA, NEV10142, and NEV10168). These nanoparticles were administered via tail vein 24 h before imaging. After harvest of the heart and aorta, fluorescent signals from these nanoparticles were captured by dual-channel FMT (FMT2000, PerkinElmer, Inc.).

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.
