NiraWave nano 780 is a nanoparticulate optical imaging agent for the visualization of vascular fine structure as well as angiogenic processes in tumors and inflammation. It provides a broad excitation range, a high quantum yield and best possible tissue penetration due to fluorescence in the near-infrared range.

NiraWave nano 780, the nanoparticle optical imaging agent:

  • Exhibits a high Stokes-shift and high resistance towards bleaching
  • Is optimized for an extended circulation time
  • Enables a wide imaging time window
  • Accumulates in the liver and spleen
  • NiraWave nano 780 is Viscover's leading agent for optical angiography

Apply NiraWave nano 780 to:

  • Visualize the vascular fine structure
  • Study angiogenesis in tumors and inflammation
