Abstract
The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a fluorescent conjugate between a carrier molecule possessing at least one amino, hydroxyl, carboxyl and/or sulfhydryl group and a fluorophoric reagent possessing at least one functional group capable of reacting with said amino, hydroxyl, carboxyl and/or sulfhydryl group(s), which consists in bringing said carrier molecule and said fluorophoric reagent into contact with an aqueous solution of a water-soluble macrocycle. The invention further relates to the conjugates obtained by this process and to their use.
