Excimer forming compounds

The present application is directed to excimer forming compounds of Formula I: WV[Y].sub.n wherein W is an excimer forming fluorophore, V is a linker moiety, Y is a metal ion coordinating moiety and n is 1, 2 or 3. In particular, the application is directed to excimer forming compounds for the detection of proximally phosphorylated sites including those found on polypeptides, proteins, pyrophosphate and RNA, for example in aqueous solution, polyacrylamide gels blotting membranes, solid-support assays and in cell culture samples.

Self-contained system, apparatus and method for continuous isolation of extracellular vesicles.
20240003897 · 2024-01-04 ·

Disclosed is a method for continuous isolation of extracellular vesicles from a biological sample. The method involves filtering the biological sample to obtain a first filtrate of a first predetermined range of particle size, then filtering the first filtrate to obtain a second filtrate of a second predetermined range of particle size, and further filtering the second filtrate to obtain a third filtrate of a third predetermined range of particle size. The third filtrate is mixed with an antibody coated solid substrate to form extracellular vesicles-antibodies conjugate. The extracellular vesicles-antibodies conjugate is isolated from the third filtrate, and selected extracellular vesicles-antibodies conjugate are eluted.
