摘要:
Tetrapyrrolic photosensitizers and imaging agent compounds having A, B, C, and D rings and having a reduced B ring and an oxidized D ring. The compounds preferably have a purity of at least 95 percent and preferably have a fused system connected at an unsaturated carbon atom of the C ring nearest the D ring and at the unsaturated carbon atom between the C and D rings. The invention also includes a method of making the compounds at over 95 percent yield by starting with a B and D ring oxidized tetrapyrollic compound and dissolving it in a halogenated hydrocarbon solvent and treating it with sufficient nitroalkane solution of FeCl36H2O to oxidize the D ring and separating the resulting organic layer and drying.

摘要:
A compound having preferential localization in tumor tissue relative to normal tissue, a preferential electromagnetic absorption at a wavelength between about 660 and 900 nm, and a fluorescence at a wavelength shifted from the preferential absorption by at least +30 nm and preferably at least +50 nm. The compound further preferably destroys tumor tissue in which it is absorbed when exposed to light at its preferential absorption wavelength. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the compound is a conjugate of a tumor avid tetrapyrrole compound with a fluorescent dye, and more preferably the fluorescent dye is an indocyanine dye such as indocyanine green. The tumor avid tetrapyrrole compound is preferably a porphyrin derivative selected from the group consisting of chlorins, bacteriochlorins, purpurins and derivatives thereof.

摘要:
A mount for supporting a silicon v-groove array that contains delicate opal fibers. Optical fibers are arranged in a planar silicon v-groove array to form a focal plane array, which is connected to a first L-bracket. The focal plane array and the first L-bracket combination are attached to a second L-bracket via a shock/vibration isolation pad. The second L-bracket includes an extended cylinder which is threaded so that a strain relief can be screwed directly into the second L-bracket and the fibers extending out the first L-bracket can be fed through the second L-bracket and directly into a monocoil. The second L-bracket also includes space to attach front, side and top covers over the focal plane array. In a related method, the silicon v-groove array is epoxied to the first L-bracket. After preparation of the focal plane array, e.g. polishing of the fibers, is completed, the focal plane array/first bracket combination is connected to the second L-bracket, with the pad therebetween. The covers are then attached to the L-bracket.
