ABSTRACT:
Methods are disclosed for determining an analyte in a medium suspected of containing the analyte. One method comprises treating a medium suspected of containing an analyte under conditions such that the analyte, if present, causes a photosensitizer and a photoactive indicator precursor molecule to come into close proximity. The photosensitizer generates singlet oxygen which activates the photoactive indicator precursor to generate a photoactive indicator molecule. Upon irradiation with light the photoactive indicator molecule produces light, which is measured. The amount of light produced by the photoactive indicator is related to the amount of analyte in the medium. Compositions, kits, and compounds are also disclosed.
