Labeled liposomes can be utilized for targeted delivery of imaging contrast agents to tumors, offering a promising diagnostic platform for cancer therapy. CD Formulation is dedicated to leveraging cutting-edge technologies and expertise to develop diverse labeled liposomes.
Liposomes, serving as a versatile drug delivery system, have gained increasing popularity. Various modifications have been implemented to enhance their imaging capabilities, such as increasing the loading capacity of imaging probes, optimizing polyethylene glycol (PEG) for prolonged circulation, reducing immune recognition, and customizing surface ligands for tissue-specific targeting. Labeled liposomes have been developed as contrast agents for multimodal imaging by incorporating imaging probes including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and optical imaging.

We offer labeled liposome customization services for flow cytometry.
Multivesicular liposome drug delivery can be achieved via various administration routes, such as intramuscular, subcutaneous, intravenous, subarachnoid, intra-articular, intravitreal, and epidural injections. We can provide research on diverse methods of drug delivery.

Technology: [111In]-lipid nanoparticle technique
Journal: Molecules
IF: 4.9
Published: 2017
Results: In this paper, the authors utilized [111In]-lipid nanoparticle platform as a drug delivery carrier and encapsulated a novel 18F-labeled cisplatin drug derivative ([18F]-FCP) as a dual molecular imaging tool with radioactive labeling and radiolabeling. This method has the potential for clinical translation using a dual-modality approach of clinically relevant radioisotope 18F positron emission tomography (PET) and 111In single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in individual patients. [111In]-lipid nanoparticles were synthesized and evaluated in vivo using biodistribution and SPECT imaging. Qualitative analysis of the SPECT images and quantitative analysis of the PET images showed the same activity patterns during imaging and demonstrated the feasibility of single dual-labeled nanostructure dual tracer imaging.
