  • Patent number: 6110443
    Abstract: Gas or air filled microbubble suspensions in aqueous phases usable as imaging contrast agents in ultrasonic echography. They contain laminarized surfactants and, optionally, hydrophilic stabilizers. The laminarized surfactants can be in the form of liposomes. The suspensions are obtained by exposing the laminarized surfactants to air or a gas before or after admixing with an aqueous phase.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 9, 1997
    Date of Patent: August 29, 2000
    Assignee: Bracco International N.V.
    Inventors: Michel Schneider, Daniel Bichon, Philippe Bussat, Jerome Puginier, Eva Hybl-Sutherland
