Abstrakt: Pharmacokinetics and biodistribution studies are essential for characterizing fluorescent agents in vivo . However, few simple methods based on fluorescence imaging are available that account for tissue optical properties and sample volume differences. We describe a method for simultaneously quantifying mean fluorescence intensity of whole blood and homogenized tissues in glass capillary tubes for two fluorescent agents, ABY-029 and IRDye 680LT, using wide-field imaging and tissue-specific calibration curves. All calibration curves demonstrated a high degree of linearity with mean R 2  = 0.99 ± 0.01 and RMSE = 0.12 ± 0.04. However, differences between linear regressions indicate that tissue-specific calibration curves are required for accurate concentration recovery. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) for all samples tested was determined to be < 0.3 nM for ABY-029 and < 0.4 nM for IRDye 680LT.
Competing Interests: ABY-029 was produced under a National Cancer Institute funded academic-industrial partnership between Dartmouth College, Affibody Medical AB, and LI-COR Biosciences, Inc.
