Abstract:
Chemically reactive 7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives and their application for analyzing cell function, for example in combination with additional fluorescent labels. The coumarin derivatives exhibit a strong absorption at 405 nm and high fluorescence quantum yields.
Abstract:
Azo heterocyclic compounds that are substantially non-fluorescent or only weakly fluorescent useful as energy acceptors. The chemically reactive compounds possess utility for labeling a wide variety of substances, including biomolecules with the resulted conjugates being highly useful for a variety of energy-transfer assays and applications. The biological conjugates of the disclosure exhibit little or no observable fluorescence and their fluorescence is significantly increased upon a biological stimulation.
Abstract:
The present invention describes novel dyes, including coumarins, rhodamines, and rhodols that incorporate additional fused aromatic rings. The dyes of the invention absorb at a longer wavelength than structurally similar dyes that do not possess the fused aromatic rings. Many of the dyes of the invention are useful fluorescent dyes. The invention includes chemically reactive dyes, dye-conjugates, and the use of such dyes in staining samples and detecting ligands or other analytes.
