Gadopentetate dimeglumine

SKU: orb1302803

Description

Gadopentetate dimeglumine is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent that enhances the visualization of soft tissues and vasculature. Research applications include in vivo imaging studies and investigations into its effects on biological systems, such as spermatogonial atrophy observed in experimental models.

Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  Interstitial MR lymphography with gadopentetate dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA) allows clear visualization of the lymphatic pathway in healthy mice, and no significant difference is found between the two agents. Their rapid kinetics limits the imaging timing window, however, facilitates repeated assessment in a single imaging session . Direct visualization of spilled gastrointestinal gadopentetate dimeglumine helps discriminate ischemic from control rats in this model .
