Abstract
The invention addresses new photo-activatable biotin derivatives having the formula I ##STR1## wherein R=(CH.sub.2).sub.n --O.sub.m !.sub.q --(CH.sub.2).sub.r --O.sub.s !.sub.t --(CH.sub.2).sub.p PA1 with n,r=2,3; m,s=0,1; q+t=1-4; p=1-4, PA1 wherein the sum of all CH.sub.2 groups does not exceed 10 PA1 and wherein R1 as a single or multiple substituent is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl, NH.sub.2, COOH, F, Cl, or Br. and their preparation, their use to inactivate streptavidin, the use of the inactivated streptavidin to reduce interference in immunoassays.
