In vivo imaging and monitoring of RFP+ tumors using the Sapphire FL

In vivo fluorescent imaging of model organisms such as mice is particularly relevant to cancer research. It can be applied in the study of tumor progression, and in assessing the effectiveness of anti-tumor treatments over time. Azure Biosystems describes the in vivo imaging of tumors in living mice using the Sapphire™ FL Biomolecular Imager, including tumor measurement and tracking tumor growth over time. Discover how attributes of the Sapphire FL make this type of imaging possible, such as integrated anesthesia ports, the ability to accommodate specimens with depth up to 4 cm, and the ability to image near-infrared fluorescence and chemiluminescence in addition to fluorescent imaging.
