In vivo imaging for detection of selective accumulation of tumor-homing peptides at the MCF-7 tumors. Peptides were first labeled with biotin at the C-terminus and then conjugated to Cy-5-tagged streptavidin. Images were acquired 24 h after intravenous injection of 5 nmol of peptides (100 μl in saline). All images were acquired under the same parameters and thus the intensity difference represents the actual difference in peptide accumulation at the tumor sites.
