Introduction
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measurement is the gold standard in kidney function assessment and is used to determine progression of kidney disease as well as drug-induced kidney toxicity. In this webinar, presented by Dr. Jeff Peterson, Director of Applied Biology at PerkinElmer, learn how the development of a near infrared (NIR) fluorescent-labeled form of inulin provides a non-invasive fluorescent imaging approach that requires very few mice to generate consistent GFR measurements and detection of changes induced by nephrectomy or drug toxicity.
