Blood substitutes, aka artificial oxygen carriers, such as perfluorocarbon emulsions, aim at improving oxygen transport and oxygen unloading to the tissue. Thereby, artificial oxygen carriers can replace allogeneic blood transfusions and improve tissue oxygenation, subsequently contributing to the function of organs with marginal oxygen supply. Carbon-Fluorine Spectroscopy (CFS™) aka Spectro-Fluor™ patented by Fluorotronics, Inc., is a green, disruptive, non-destructive, non-invasive and progressive analytical technology that was shown reliable and promising for various (nano-) pharmaceutical and bio-medical applications. The key feature of CFS™ is based on the capability to specifically, sensitively and rapidly detect carbon-fluorine bond(s) in the fingerprint spectral area of 550-850 cm-1 allowing F-imaging as well as qualitative and quantitative characterization o..
