Abstract
Chemically reactive carbocyanine dyes that are intramolecularly crosslinked between the 1-position and 3′-position, their bioconjugates and their uses are described. 1,3′-crosslinked carbocyanines are superior to those of conjugates of spectrally similar 1,1′-crosslinked or non-crosslinked dyes. The invention includes derivative compounds having one or more benzo nitrogens.
Claims5
A kit for fluorometric analysis of a biological sample, comprising:
- a dye solution comprising a conjugate of a biological substance and dye I,
- wherein C is a non-conjugated chain of 10 to 50 linear atoms selected from a group consisting of carbon and nitrogen that are further substituted by substituents selected from a group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl having 1-20 carbons, hydroxyl, carbonyl, and RGM;
- n is 0, 1, 2 or 3;
- R1, R2 and R3 are independently a hydrogen having 1-20 carbons, a cycloalkyl having 3-20 carbons, an aryl, a heteroaryl, an amino, an alkylamino, an arylamino, a thiol, an alkylthio or a RGM;
- R4-R11 and R13-R14 are independently a hydrogen, an alkyl having 1-20 carbons, a hydroxyl, an alkoxy having 1-20 carbons, a fluorinated alkyl, a halogen, an alkylthiol, a sulfonyl, a carbonyl, a hydroxyl, an amino, an alkylthio, a thiol, a sulfate, a phosphate or a RGM;
- X is O or S;
- RGM is a carboxylic acid, an activated ester of a carboxylic acid, an acyl azide, an acyl nitrile, an imido ester, an isocyanate, an isothiocyanate, or a maleimide;
- wherein the biological substance is selected from a group consisting of a peptide, protein, nucleotide, nucleic acid, carbohydrate, lipid, membrane or cell.
