Abstract: The present invention describes novel fluorescent compounds analogous to alkyl phospholipids, containing highly photostable fluorescent groups in the structure thereof and emitting in the visible spectrum wavelength zone. Said compounds are easily introduced to microorganisms, enabling the detection and identification of these organisms by means of fluorescence microscopy. The novel fluorescent compounds can also diagnose, rapidly and easily, the presence of pathogenic microorganisms characterised in that they are resistant to treatment with alkyl phospholipids.

Abstract: The present patent of invention describes the obtention of lasers in solid condition of dyes of the family of Rhodamines. More particularly, it describes lasers in which said dye or chromophore is to be found covalently anchored to a solid matrix, consisting in a transparent organic polymer and suficiently stable to the pumping radiation. Its application is the production of the laser emittance by an organic dye in a solid matrix and polymers containing rhodamines.
