The synthesis of novel 4-(phenylethyny1)pyridine subunits containing H,O-soluble complexing agents and their luminescence with Eu"' ions are reported. Ligands with high luminescence intensities as well as quantum yields were obtained. Also the prepared labeling reagents as antibody conjugates gave the highest quantum and luminescence yields reported for H,O-soluble Eu'" labels.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
