  • AZO HETEROCYCLIC DYES AND THEIR BIOLOGICAL CONJUGATES
    Publication number: 20100311184
    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.
