1. An adduct of a basic macromolecule and biotin having the formula:
- ##STR5## wherein MM is the residue of a basic macromolecule selected from the group consisting of cytochrome C, histone and polyethyleneimine, formed by substituted the H-atom of one or more primary or secondary amino groups;
alk represents an alkylene group having from 1 to 10 C-atoms;
m is 0 or 1, and n is a positive integer from 1 to 30, with the proviso that, where MM represents cytochrome C or histone, m is not zero.

Abstract
The invention relates to an adduct of a basic macromoleculer and biotin having the general formula: ##STR1## in which MM is the residue of a basic macromolecule formed by substituting the H-atom of one or more primary amino groups;
alk represents an optionally substituted alkylene group having from 1 to 10 C-atoms;
m is 0 or 1; and
n is a positive integer,
with the proviso that, where MM represents cytochrome C or histone, m is not 0.
The adduct is useful in constructing non-radioactive nucleic acid hydridization probes.
