Abstract

Abstract Novel polyhalothyronines or immunogenic mimetic analogs are provided conjugated to a fluorescer compound with the resulting conjugate being highly fluorescent. Specifically, the compounds have at least one of the following characteristics: bromine(s) at the 3',5'-positions of the thyronine or mimetic analog; or a rigid linking group between the thyronine and the fluorescer, so as to inhibit heavy atom catalyzed decay of fluorescence. The subject conjugates find a wide variety of uses in detecting for thyroid hormones as well as proteins which specifically bind to thyroid hormones.
