FSB 1PC X 5MG

General description

A fluorine analog of the amyloidophilic fluorescent probe BSB (Cat. No. 286895) that crosses the blood-brain barrier and displays low toxicity (LD₅₀ >80 mg/kg). Suitable for non-invasive amyloid visualization in living transgenic Tg2576 mice by using ¹⁹F and ¹H-MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). Also useful for staining plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in brain tissue sections of Alzheimer′s diseased patients with improved sensitivity, and reduced background.
