General description

1-Bromoheptadecafluorooctane (perfluorooctyl bromide) is a perfluorocarbon. Poly(ethylene glycol)ylated polyester nanocapsules of perfluorooctyl bromide were surface-decorated with a RGD (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid) peptide, were used for tumor imaging. Nanocapsules of perfluorooctyl bromide have been developed as dual contrast agent for ultrasonography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

Application

1-Bromoheptadecafluorooctane (perfluorooctyl bromide) can be used as contrast agent in the vascular system for fluorine-19 magnetic resonance imaging or as synthetic oxygen carrier. It was also employed as oxygen carrier in the emulsions used as blood substitutes.

PEGylated polyester nanocapsules of perfluorooctyl bromide (PFOB) were surface-decorated with a RGD (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid) peptide by either pre-functionalization or post-functionalization strategies using carbodiimide-assisted chemistry. Both strategies allowed successful linkage of RGD at the surface of nanocapsules with up to 600-950
