Cyanine is a International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry nomenclature non systematic name of a synthetic dye family belonging to polymethine group. Cyanines have many uses as fluorescent dyes, particularly in biomedical imaging. Depending on the structure, they cover the spectrum from infrared IR to ultraviolet UV . Cyanines were originally used, and still are, to increase the sensitivity range of photo emulsion photographic emulsions , i.e., to increase the range of wavelength s which will form an image on the film, making the film panchromatic . Cyanines are also used in CD R and DVD R media. The ones used are mostly green or light blue in color, and are chemically unstable. This makes unstabilized cyanine discs unsuitable for archival CD and DVD use, as they can fade and become unreadable in a few years, however, recent cyanine discs contain stabilizers that slow down the deterioration significantly. These discs are often rated with an archival life of 75 years or more. The other dyes used in CD Rs are phthalocyanine and Azo compound azo . Cyanines were first synthesized over a century ago, and there are a large number reported in the literature.

Unreferenced date November 2006 Image Aminoallyl Uridine.svg right frame The structure of aminoallyluridine Aminoallyl nucleotides are used in post labeling of nucleic acid s to be used in microarray s. These nucleotides are formally known as 5 3 amino allyl nucleotides since the aminoallyl group is usually attached to carbon 5 of the pyrimidine ring of uracil and cytosine . They are usually abbreviated as aa , such as aa dUTP. The amine group in the aminoallyl moiety is aliphatic and thus more reactive compared to the amine groups that are directly attached to the rings aromatic of the bases. Uses The aminoallyl group in aminoallyl modified nucleotides is reactive with dyes such as the cyanine series, AnaSpec HiLyte Fluor , or Alexa Fluor dyes that also been modified to be amine reactive. A problem with this method is that the dyes react with the buffering agent usually used for storage of nucleotides. Instead a carbonate buffer is used. The DNA or RNA from a sample is copied in vitro by T7 polymerase, RT polymerase or some other polymerase except of eukaryotic origin in a mix of nucleotides in which one, typically uracil RNA and also DNA , is a mix aminoallyl NTP and normal UTP. An alternative method is using thiol reactive dyes. DEFAULTSORT Aminoallyl Nucleotide Category Nucleic acids Category Nucleotides molecular cell biology stub ... more details

Panchromatic film is a type of black and white photographic film that is sensitive to all wavelength s of visible light . Description A panchromatic film produces a realistic reproduction of a scene as it appears to the human eye. Almost all modern photographic film is panchromatic, but some types are orthochromatic and are not sensitive to certain wavelengths of light. As naturally prepared, silver halide photographic emulsion emulsions are much more sensitive to blue and UV light than to green and red wavelengths. The German chemist Hermann W. Vogel found out how to extend the sensitivity into the green, and later the orange, by adding sensitising dyes to the emulsion. By the addition of erythrosine the emulsion could be made orthochromatic while some cyanine derivative chemistry derivatives confer sensitivity to the whole visible spectrum making it panchromatic. However, his technique was not extended to achieve a fully panchromatic film until the early 1900s, shortly after his death. Panchromatic stock for still photographic plates became available commercially in 1906. ref Ralph E. Jacobson et al. , http books.google.com books?id HHX4xB94vcMC The Manual of Photography Photographic and Digital Imaging , 9th ed., Focal Press, p. 208. ISBN 978 0240515748. ref But the switch from orthochromatic film was only gradual panchromatic plates cost two to three times as much, and had to be developed in darkness, unlike orthochromatic which, being insensitive to red, could be developed under a red light in the darkroom. ref Geo.

Greenfield, http books.google.com books?id 7a8EAAAAYAAJ&pg RA1 PA460 Practical Panchromatism in the Studio , Wilson s Photographic Magazine , October 1912, p. 460 461. ref And the process that increased the film s sensitivity to yellow and red also made it oversensitive to blue and violet, requiring a yellow red lens filter to correct it, which in turn reduced the total amount of light and increased the necessary exposure time. ref http books.goo ... more details
File Squarainedyes.png thumb 380px top a 1,2,3,3 tetramethyl 3H indolium salt and bottom aniline derivative of squaraine dyes Squaraine dyes are a class of organic dyes showing intense fluorescence , typically in the red and near infrared region absorption maxima are found between 630 and 670  nm and their emission maxima are between 650 700  nm . They are characterized by their unique aromatic four membered ring system derived from squaric acid . Most squaraines are wikt encumbered by nucleophilic attack of the central four membered ring, which is highly electron deficient . This encumbrance can be attenuated by the formation of a rotaxane around the dye to protect it from nucleophiles. They are currently used as sensors for ions and have recently, with the advent of protected squanaine derivatives, been exploited in biomedical imaging. Synthesis Synthesis of squaraine dyes was reported at least in 1966. ref cite journal author Sprenger, H. E. & Ziegenbein, W. journal Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. volume 5 year 1966 page 894 title Condensation Products of Squaric Acid and Tertiary Aromatic Amines doi 10.1002 anie.196608941 ref They are derived from squaric acid which undergoes an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction with an aniline or another electron rich derivative to form a highly conjugated product with extensive charge distribution. For instance, squaraine dyes are also formed via reaction of squaric acid or its derivatives with so called methylene bases like 2 methyl indolenines, 2 methyl benzthiazoles or 2 methyl benzo selenazoles. Indolenine based squaraines combine good photostability including high quantum yields when bound to proteins and reactive versions of these dyes are commonly used as fluorescent probes and labels for biomedical applications. ref cite journal author E.
