| Abstract | Two-photon excitation of fluorescence (TPE) has been found a powerful tool in the field of microscopy imaging and recently also in the field of bioanalytics. The recently introduced bioaffinity assay technology, ArcDia™ TPX, enables separation-free ultra-sensitive immunoassays from microvolumes. This assay technique is based on the use of microspheres as a solid reaction carriers and two-photon excited fluorescence detection. In the ArcDia™ TPX-technology, the individual microparticles are observed and the number of bound biomolecules on the microparticle surface is quantified by two-photon excited fluorescence. Here we present synthesis and use of a novel dipyrrylmethene-BF$_{2}$ fluorophore that has been designed to be used as label in ArcDia™ TPX assay technique. The absorption and emission wavelengths of the label are tuned to allow excitation with a 1064 nm microchip laser. The label contains two-carboxylic residues, one of which is activated as N-hydroxysuccinimide ester to enable labeling of amino residues of biomolecules. The other carboxylic group is in free form to increase solubility in aqueous solutions. This new fluorescent label is tested in a separation-free immunoassay using ArcDia™ TPX assay technique. The performance of the new label is compared to that of one of the brightest fluorophores available, R-phycoerythrin (RPE). According to the results, the dipyrrylmethene-BF$_{2}$ label provides significantly better signal-to-background ratio, leading to higher assay sensitivity and broader dynamic range compared to that of RPE. Good solubility to aqueous solutions and high fluorescence quantum efficiency, suggests the dipyrrylmethene-BF$_{2}$ label is applicable also in other fluorescence-based applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
