Abstract
Coumarins, fluorescein, and resorufin derivatives are three important fluorescence labels which can be used for labeling of biomolecules. During the last years a wide range of new fluorescence labels have been published and are commercially available, especially covering the long wavelength/ NIR range. Among these are new rhodamine and oxazine derivatives (Arden-Jakob et al., 1997) cyanine derivatives (Thompson, 1994) and also BODIPY fluorophores (Haugland, 1996). The development was especially driven by the upcoming cheap laser diodes (Wersig et al., 1993) and the demand to reduce background fluorescence.
