摘要
Highly effective stabilization of microbubbles has been obtained by using a fluorocarbon as part of their filling gas and a fluorinated phospholipid, instead of a standard phospholipid, as a shell component. An unexpected strong synergistic effect between the fluorocarbon gas and the fluorinated phospholipid has been discovered.
