Summary |
Fluorescent saccharide-based probe (FSP) is a small water soluble molecular with nontoxic and non-cancerous property and emits a high quality of green fluoresces energy upon excitation by a UV or blue light source. In body system, FSP can be absorbed and metabolized through glucose or amino acid metabolic pathway. Therefore, multiple and numerous potentialities of FSP are applicable to cancer detection, cell toxicity, preclinical animal drug test, microorganism detection and environment toxicant detection. |
Scientific Breakthrough |
By 2020, the global cell testing market is expected to grow from approximately $10.8 billion in 2015 to $18.3 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of 11.16% between 2015 and 2020. Cell growth market growth factors include increased R&D spending, increasing use of cell detection for drug screening, and advances in automation and high-throughput technologies are helping to grow the market. Fluorescent saccharide-based probe (FSP) is a small water soluble molecular with nontoxic and non-cancerous property and emits a high quality of green fluoresces energy upon excitation by a UV or blue light source. In body system, FSP can be absorbed and metabolized through glucose or amino acid metabolic pathway. Due to the good biocompatible and non-toxic property of FSP, cells can be harvested and grow in FSP medium. Therefore, multiple and numerous potentialities of FSP are applicable to cancer detection, cell toxicity, preclinical animal drug test, microorganism detection and environment toxicant detection. |
