Acridinium Amine

Acridinium is a univalent radical derived from acridine. Acridinium amines are synthetic molecules known for their strong chemiluminescence, commonly used to label molecules containing carbonyl groups, such as aldehydes or carboxyl groups. The chemiluminescence of acridinium amines is triggered by exposure to an alkaline hydrogen peroxide solution, facilitating their use in sensitive detection methodologies within immunoassays and various biological assays. For accurate signal detection in a chemiluminescence analyzer, a trigger solution containing (A) 0.1% H₂O₂ and 0.1 M HNO₃, and (B) 0.25 M NaOH and 2% Triton X-100 is recommended.
