Syntheses of fluorescent sensing molecules and their applications to biochemistry

Nowadays a great attention is paid to organic fluorescent dyes because the desired functions can be easily realized though the molecular design and syntheses. Our mission is to develop new fluorescent materials which serve as sensors of biochemical receptor and physical stimuli and to apply these materials to medicinal, pharmaceutical and biochemical researches. In the syntheses of the fluorescent sensing dyes, practical and efficient synthetic processes will be investigated, and in the analyses using the fluorescent dyes, high-throughput technology will be established.
