Abstract

Compounds, compositions, and methods for optical, including fluorescence optical, determinations useful in labelling biomolecules such as protein and deoxyribonucleic acid for their detection and quantitation. The compounds are diasteromeric cyanines with high hydrophilicity and other desirable properties.
