Description
Product Overview
GadoSpin™ P is a long-circulating MR angiography contrast agent formulated for high-resolution vascular imaging. Based on a linear high molecular weight polymer, GadoSpin P remains within intact vasculature without extravasation, providing a prolonged steady-state phase suitable for detailed anatomical and functional studies.

Research Applications
GadoSpin™ P allows comprehensive visualization of the vascular system in preclinical models. It supports assessment of both healthy vasculature and pathological changes in tumors and inflammatory lesions. Its extended blood pool phase enables accurate delineation of microvessels and facilitates quantitative evaluation of vascular structure.
Imaging Characteristics
GadoSpin™ P demonstrates relaxivity in water at 37 °C, with r1 = 10 L mmol-1 s-1 and r2 = 12 L mmol-1 s-1 at 1.41 T. The polymeric agent has a molecular weight of approximately 200,000 g mol-1. These properties contribute to prolonged intravascular retention, enhanced signal intensity, and improved image resolution during MR angiography.

Advantages for Preclinical MRA Studies
The polymeric nature and high molecular weight of GadoSpin™ P provide consistent, high-quality contrast in longitudinal imaging studies. Researchers can utilize its prolonged blood circulation to optimize acquisition windows, perform repeated measurements, and capture fine vascular structures with high fidelity.
Preclinical Imaging Validation
In mouse models, whole-body T1-weighted MR angiography using GadoSpin™ P demonstrates clear visualization of vascular fine structures. The agent’s extended blood pool phase allows for sharper vessel delineation compared to conventional gadolinium-based agents, supporting both qualitative and quantitative analyses.
