The high potency neutral Clophosome® are provided at 20mg/mL so that high content of clodronate could be dosed when the dosing volume is small, such as intratracheal, intranasal, Intracerebroventricular (ICV) or intratumor injections.
Note: dosing volume for these high potency Clophosome® products have not been fully assessed, so test before conducting the final study.

Caution: CLEAN with alcohol and DO NOT reuse the needles
It is very important to follow the instruction, particularly for long-term macrophage depletion (more than a week). Animals become sensitive to infection when macrophages are depleted, and their immune system is compromised. Animal sickness and even death may result if they are handled improperly. It is extremely important to conduct the injection in a clean environment. Withdraw the liposomes through the rubber stopper (clean with alcohol first) with a new sterile needle. Always clean the injection site with alcohol and use a new and sterile needle for each injection. Keep the animal cages clean. Open the vials in a biological safety cabinet (BSC hood) and DO NOT contaminate the Clophosome®.
A good practice is to include a few extra animals for long-term experiments, as occasional animal death may occur. Test with a small group of animals first if you are a new user or using a new administration regimen. Treated properly these animals (mice) could survive for over a month even with twice-a-week injection of our clodronate liposomes.
