Abstract

The invention provides a novel group of azo quencher compositions that are useful as quenchers of fluorescence and to methods for making and using them. The quenchers contain an azo bond and 1,3,3-trimethyl-2-methyleneindoline ring system. The quenchers can be derivatized to facilitate their conjugation to a variety of biologically relevant compounds, including lipids, nucleic acids, peptides, proteins, and the like.
