Abstract: Chemiluminescent 1,2-dioxetane compounds are disclosed in which the molecule is stabilized at the 3-position on the dioxetane ring against decomposition prior to the molecule's coming in contact with a labile group-removing substance (e.g., an enzyme that will cleave the labile group to cause the molecule to decompose to form at least one light-emitting fluorophore) and substituted at the 4-position on the dioxetane ring with a fused polycyclic ring-containing fluorophore moiety bearing a labile ring substituent whose point of attachment to the fused polycyclic ring, in relation to this ring's point(s) of attachment to the dioxetane ring, is such that the total number of ring atoms separating these points of attachment, including the ring atoms at the points of attachment, is an odd whole number. These odd pattern substituted compounds decompose to emit light of greater intensity and of a different wavelength than that emitted by the corresponding even pattern substituted isomers.
Abstract: Novel chromophor derivatives of cyclic anhydrides are provided which have the ability to react with a variety of organic substrates forming adducts which are useful in analytical techniques for the detection and measurement of biological compounds.
Abstract: A method for conducting assays for an analyte, usually in a biological sample, utilizes reagents which contain biological ligands linked to fluorescein or a derivative of fluorescein through a linkage to the fluorescein nucleus selected from acetamido and thioacetamido. In these reagents, the fluorescence efficiency is improved over that obtained in the commonly used FITC-labeled reagents.
