 PROFILE
Xenogen wants to light up the biotech world. The biotechnology firm develops, manufactures, and markets "in vivo" biophotonic imaging systems designed to allow speedier drug discovery and development. Xenogen's "in vivo" biophotonic system adds luciferase, which produces a light-emitting enzyme, into tumor cells. Highly sensitive cameras capture the emitted light and its LivingImage software helps record and analyze the data. The company has licensed its real-time "in vivo" imaging technology to such firms as SUGEN, Onyx Pharmaceuticals, Chiron, AstraZeneca, and GlaxoSmithKline.
