| Research Abstract |
Fluorescent real-time imaging methods enables us to monitor proteins and other molecules in living animals. This technique can make significant contribution to not only basic science but also researches for drug discovery, regenerative medicine and clinical state analyses in model animals. For this purpose, we succeeded to develop a non-fluorescent in near-infrared and nutritionally complete diet and a fluorescent protein derivative which shows 30-fold higher intensity of NIR fluorescence.
