Preferred Label : Bevonescein;
NCIt synonyms : Peptide-dye Conjugate ALM-488;
NCIt definition : A synthetic, peptide-dye conjugate composed of an undisclosed, proprietary peptide
conjugated to a fluorescent dye, that can potentially be used for the intraoperative
fluorescence detection and localization of nerve tissue. Upon administration of bevonescein,
the peptide moiety binds to the extracellular matrix of nerves independent of myelin.
Upon fluorescence imaging, nerve tissues are illuminated and detected.;
