10-fold higher bioluminescent signal than could be obtained from D-luciferin injection at equivalent doses (Fig. Currently, intraperitoneal (IP) injection of D-luciferin is the preferred method of providing Note: A Luciferin kinetic study should be performed for each animal model to determine peak signal time after Luciferin administration. Slowly inject the luciferin into the intraperitoneal cavity, remove needle and discard safely. Amongst these methods, IP injection has 5Department of Radiation Oncology, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA 23298, USA Currently, intraperitoneal (IP) injection of D-luciferin is the preferred method of providing substrate for bioluminescence imaging (BLI); however it has a failure rate of 3–10% due to accidental intestinal injection. Rated 5 out of 5 by SF from Khalil Khalil, AA. The availability of luciferin at the site of interest is a key element of BLI. The dose is the same 150 mg/kg. Part of ACLAM's series of laboratory animal books, this text offers concise but complete coverage on rabbits and the most common rodent species, with an emphasis on biology, clinical procedures, clinical signs, and diseases and conditions. After 25 minutes, the luciferin levels start to diminish and have returned to near background levels by one hour post luciferin administration. (e.g. Procedure . Although there are clear advantages for tumor characterization with this technique, several challenges and drawbacks exist. Your best imaging window is between 10 and 25 minutes post luciferin administration. D-luciferin (Biosynth International, Inc.) at 150 μg/ml in media was added to each well 5–10 min before imaging. Figure 3. BLI studies were repeated at an interval of 3 h using a given injection route to assess repeatability and … Found inside – Page 673ATP was then extracted and assayed by measuring luminescence in a luciferin-luciferase solution. All of the ... Heptachlor toxicity was also higher following peroral administration when compared to the intraperitoneal administration. 75-2414. Delivering as a bolus (as opposed to slow absorption) the signal will peak at 5 min post injection and disappear by 30 min. This will influence its availability and, therefore, the bioluminescent signal. The substrate “luciferin” is usually given as an intravenous (IV) or intraperitoneal (IP) injection to animals for imaging purposes. The bioluminescence signal increases gradually, reaches a peak 10–20 min after injection, and then decreases gradually. Optical luciferase gene imaging is emerging as a method to monitor gene expression in small animals. Subcutaneous Administration of D-Luciferin is an Effective Alternative to Intraperitoneal Injection in Bioluminescence Imaging of Xenograft Tumors in Nude Mice Article Full-text available Mice harboring luciferase-transduced tumors were administered 100 μL of 1.5 mg/mL D-luciferin substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific) by intraperitoneal injection and anesthetized with 1%-2% isoflurane. Background: Reproduction of the perfusion used in therapy (hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy) procedures preclinically represents a valuable asset for investigating new therapeutic agents that may improve patient outcomes. Procedure: 2.1: After the mouse is fully anesthetized, inject the mouse intra-peritoneally (i.p.) with the luciferin solution (40 mg/mL in PBS) at a dose of 200 mg/kg body weight 5–15 min before imaging. Inject the Luciferin intra-peritoneally (i.p.) In the tumor models and transgenic models,luciferin is administered intraperitoneally (concomitantwith anesthesia). Introduction In vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is a promising technique for non-invasive tumour imaging. Found inside – Page 802These substrates are administered exogenously to the study subjects typically via intraperitoneal (IP) injection. Injection of D-luciferin into the ... Inject 150 mg Luciferin/kg body weight. Intraperitoneal injection of CycLuc1 yielded a >10-fold higher bioluminescent signal than could be obtained from D-luciferin injection at equivalent doses (Fig. Luciferin: Prepare a 10 m M stock solution by dissolving 10 mg of Luciferin (Boehringer Mannheim, GmbH, Germany) in 2.57 ml of H 2 O and 1 ml of methanol. The instructions given below represent successfully applied protocols. At 5, 7, and 10 days postimplant, intraperitoneal injections of D-luciferin were given to monitor the uptake into the tumor, and the tumor volume was measured using ultrasound. The substrate “luciferin” is usually given as an intravenous (IV) or intraperitoneal (IP) injection to animals for imaging purposes. This work focuses on modeling and quantitatively analyzing the dynamic data produced from the intraperitoneal (IP) injection of D-luciferin in longitudinal BLI, aiming to provide a powerful tool for monitoring the growth of tumors. to its ease of use and high sensitivity (1-5). NOD/SCID SKOV-3x tumor-bearing mouse was administered with an intraperitoneal injection of 15 μg/kg of unlabeled substrate d-luciferin, and then immediately placed in the NightOWL light-tight chamber and a bioluminescent image was acquired every 2 min for up to 40 min (luminescence dynamics represent luciferin kinematics). Development of the NCI‐N87 peritoneally disseminated mouse model was confirmed using an in vivo imaging system (IVIS; Xenogen) by intraperitoneal injection with 100 μL of 7.5 mg/mL D‐luciferin potassium salt followed by anesthesia administered by isoflurane inhalation. Careful and consistent luciferin injection in terms of the amount and the location of injection is required in BLI analyses over time. For the injection, mice should be manually restrained, abdomen side up. Needles should be level-side up and slightly angled when entering the abdominal cavity. D-luciferin is the standard bioluminescent substrate for in vitro and in vivo imaging. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) How well does luciferin distribute? Kinetic modeling and analysis of dynamic bioluminescence imaging of substrates administered by intraperitoneal injection. Found insideIt is of particularly use for graduate and postgraduate students in the areas of medical biophysics. This Work is indispensable to all serious readers in this interdisciplinary area where physics is applied in medicine and biology. D-luciferin can be delivered by intraperitoneal (IP) or intravenous (IV) injection [, ], ISRN Molecular Imaging but currently IP injection is preferred because of its con- venience. If you need to sedate the animals before injection, be aware that it may slightly extend the kinetics (p eak luciferase expression time). Imaging time was 1 min/plate. Here we demonstrate that, compared with intraperitoneal injection, intranasal instillation of luciferin confers approximately an order of magnitude increase in … e) Imaging will be done efficiently minimize the time under anesthesia and typical would take 5-20 minutes. BLI of multisite xenograft model after SC injection. 5-15 min-utes before imaging.
