A signed Confidential Disclosure Agreement may be required to receive any unpublished information. Available for licensing and commercial development are patent rights covering a PET imaging method for fungal infections, for example, Aspergillus fumigatus. Currently, there is a lack of imaging agents specific for fungal infections. L-Rhamnose is selectively uptaken by live A. fumigatus. PET imaging experiments showed a 39% increase in uptake by infected mice as opposed to control mice when administered 18Fdeoxyrhamnose. As such, the instant imaging agent has potential as a fungal infection diagnostic imaging agent. Potential Commercial Applications: • Imaging of live fungal infections • Imaging of live infections of A. fumigatus Development Stage: • Preclinical • Mouse data Inventors: Dima Hammoud (NIHCC), Rolf Swenson (NHLBI), Xiang (Sean) Zhang (NHLBI), Swati Shah (CC) and Peter Richard Williamson (NIAID).
