    摘要: Disclosed are fluorescent energy transfer dyes which are capable of moving between a more stacked configuration to exhibit fluorescent quenching and a more spaced configuration to exhibit fluorescence can be conjugated to a peptide epitope for use in the detection of an unknown antibody in bulk solution. The resulting labeled peptide reagent can be used in an immunoassay procedure by placing it in bulk solution along with the unknown antibody to be detected. When the antibody binds to the peptide epitope, the pair of dyes carried by the peptide epitope will have their configuration altered from a stacked to an unstacked configuration and will exhibit a fluorescent increase in response thereto.

    摘要: A step-gradient composite waveguide for evanescent sensing in fluorescent binding assays comprises a thick substrate layer having one or more thin film waveguide channels deposited thereon. In one embodiment, the substrate is silicon dioxide and the thin film is silicon oxynitride. Specific binding molecules having the property of binding with specificity to an analyte are immobilized on the surface of the thin film channels. In preferred embodiments, the composite waveguide further includes light input coupling means integrally adapted to the thin film channels. Such light coupling means can be a grating etched into the substrate prior to deposition of the thin film, or a waveguide coupler affixed to the upper surface of the thin film. The waveguide coupler has a thick input waveguide of high refractive index which receives the laser light through one end and propagates it by total internal reflection. The propagated light is then coupled evanescently into the thin film waveguide across a spacer layer of precise thickness and having an index of refraction lower than either the input waveguide or the thin-film waveguide. The composite waveguide can be constructed by plasma vapor deposition of silicon oxynitride onto the silicon dioxide substrate, masking the channel waveguides with a photoresist, and using reactive ion etching to expose the substrate in the unmasked regions.

    摘要: The energy transfer efficiency of a donor-acceptor pair of fluorescent dyes can be determined by first measuring the fluorescence and absorption spectra of donor-protein, acceptor-protein, mixture of donor-protein and acceptor-protein, and donor-acceptor-protein conjugates, then separating the respective spectra into their respective donor-protein complex and acceptor-protein complex components using multiple linear regression, and then determining the transfer efficiency on the basis of the quenching of the donor fluorescence based on the spectral data thus obtained.
