Perflubron is a perfluorocarbon-based haloalkane, specifically a bromine-substituted perfluorooctane, that serves as both a contrast agent for medical imaging and a synthetic blood substitute. Its key significance lies in its ability to carry oxygen and provide radioopacity, making it useful in diverse medical applications such as retinal detachment surgery and cell culture oxygen supply.
