Abstract: The invention relates to novel, water-soluble fluorescent dyes with high fluorescence quantum yield based on oxygen-containing heterocycles, their reactive derivatives and dye conjugates, and their use for labelling samples and detecting analytes. The compounds of the new dye class are compatible with commercial excitation light sources and are characterised by Stokes shifts of more than 50 nm.

Abstract: The invention relates to fluorescent dyes (fluorophores) based on polymethines for use in optical measurement and detection procedures, in particular those employing fluorescence, for example in medicine, in pharmacology and in the biological, materials and environmental sciences. The objective was to create fluorophores based on polymethines that have a large Stokes shift, high photostability, long storage life and a high fluorescent quantum yield, and that can be excited in the simplest possible manner by white-light sources or laser radiation in the UV, visible or NIR spectral region. According to the invention dyes on the basis of polymethines having the general formulas I, II or III are employed.

Abstract: Compounds, compositions, and methods for optical, including fluorescence optical, determinations useful in labelling biomolecules such as protein and deoxyribonucleic acid for their detection and quantitation. The compounds are diasteromeric cyanines with high hydrophilicity and other desirable properties.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of optical-fluorescent markers, particularly to benzopyrylo-polymethine-based optical-fluorescent markers.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to so-called laser-compatible NIR marker dyes based on polymethines for use in optical, in particular, fluorescence optical determination and detection methods, for example, in the fields of medicine, pharmaceutics and in the areas of life science, materials science and environmental science. The disclosure further discusses the aim of the invention which was to create NIR marker dyes based on polymethine which have a high degree of photostability and stability in storage as well as a high fluorescent yield and which can be excited to fluorescence in the easiest possible manner by means of laser radiation in the visible or NIR spectral range, particularly with light of an argon, helium/neon, or diode laser. Dyes based on polymethine of general formula (I) are used.
