Water-soluble poly(2,7-dibenzosilole) as an ultra-bright fluorescent label for antibody-based flow cytometry

Abstract

A series of novel water-soluble PEGylated dibenzosilole-based conjugated polymers were prepared as ultra-bright fluorescent labels for biomolecules. Due to their superior solubility and brightness, antibody conjugates labeled with functionalized polymers showed significantly enhanced signal and sensitivity relative to traditional fluorophores in functional flow cytometry applications.
