Light harvesting multichromophore compositions and methods of using the same
First Claim
1. A solution comprising:
- a light harvesting multichromophore that is a conjugated polymer configured upon excitation to transfer energy to, and amplify the emission from, an acceptor signaling chromophore; and
the acceptor signaling chromophore that is a fluorescent dye in energy-receiving proximity to the donor light harvesting multichromophore.

Abstract
Light harvesting luminescent multichromophores that are configured upon excitation to transfer energy to, and amplify the emission from, an acceptor signaling chromophore in energy-receiving proximity therewith are provided. Also provided are compositions for labelling a target. The labelling composition may include a donor light harvesting multichromophore and an acceptor signaling chromophore in energy-receiving proximity to the donor light harvesting multichromophore. Also provided is an aqueous composition for labelling a target, including: a donor light harvesting multichromophore; an acceptor signaling chromophore in energy-receiving proximity therewith; and a sensor biomolecule. Methods for using the subject compositions are also provided.
