MitoPhor™

OcuSciences' MitoPhor™ technology utilizes unique and patented fluorescence technology that allows for new disease insights

What is MitoPhor?

MitoPhor is an endogenous autofluorescence¹ based on a narrow blue wavelength excitation and narrow wavelength green emission. Preclinical studies² have shown that human RPE, when oxidized, is susceptible to green emission when stimulated with blue light. Our devices are designed to explore this endogenous phenomenon.
