Abstract:
Provided herein are heptamethine cyanine dyes having a large Stokes shift, and the salts and conjugates thereof. Also provided are methods of using and making such large Stokes shift dyes as fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) acceptors or donors.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are compounds, compositions, methods, and kits for detecting reactive oxygen species (ROS) by conventional fluorescence microscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, flow cytometry, and/or high content imaging. The compounds disclosed herein are novel reduced nucleic acid binding cyanine dyes, which dyes are probes for detecting ROS and measuring oxidative stress in cells either in vitro and/or in vivo. Also described herein are processes for preparing novel reduced dyes, i.e., ROS probes, for use in the disclosed compositions, methods and kits.
Abstract:
Silicon-substituted rhodamine compounds are disclosed herein. Also described herein are SiR dyes comprising at least one vinyl group attached to the Si atom (10 position) of the SiR dye. Derivatives, functionalized versions, conjugates, kits, related synthetic methods and uses of SiR compounds also are provided. Silicon-rhodamine (SiR) dyes can provide bright fluorescence at far red wavelengths and exhibit good photostability. The compounds described herein can be useful for fluorescent labeling and detection of biological samples.
