  • Publication number: 20240018174
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel quinone methide analog precursors and embodiments of a method and a kit of using the same for detecting one or more targets in a biological sample. The method of detection comprises contacting the sample with a detection probe, then contacting the sample with a labeling conjugate that comprises an enzyme. The enzyme interacts with a quinone methide analog precursor comprising a detectable label, forming a reactive quinone methide analog, which binds to the biological sample proximally to or directly on the target. The detectable label is then detected. In some embodiments, multiple targets can be detected by multiple quinone methide analog precursors interacting with different enzymes without the need for an enzyme deactivation step.
