Near-infrared (NIR) dyes (λem > 650 nm) are very promising for the analysis of biological samples, because their long wavelengths allow for minimization of interferences from biomolecule matrices. In this paper, a novel NIR dye, 5,5’-dicarboxy-1,1’-disulfobutyl-3,3,3’,3’-tetramethylindotricarbocyanine (DCDSTCY) has been developed for the spectrophotometric assay of total proteins in serum. Under acidic conditions, the binding of DCDSTCY to proteins caused a new peak at 878 nm, the height of which was proportionable to the concentration of proteins. The linear range was found to be 0.04-0.5 μg mL-1 for bovine serum albumin (BSA) and human serum albumin (HAS) with the detection limits of 5 ng mL-1, respectively. The maximum binding number of BSA with DCDSTCY was measured as 133. The proposed method has been applied to the quantitation of total proteins in serum with recoveries of 96.6-104%.
