A solid phase reagent and method for simultaneously capturing and fluorescently labeling an analyte with multiple reactive sites to provide a mono-labeled analyte are disclosed. The reagent can be used in the method and comprises a plurality of analyte-reactive groups tethered to a porous solid phase, wherein each analyte-reactive group is covalently attached to a fluorescent group either directly or indirectly, wherein the distance between adjacent analyte-reactive groups is greater than the gyration radius of a captured analyte; the fluorescent group is covalently attached to a cleavable anchor group either directly or through a first spacer; and the cleavable anchor group is covalently attached to the solid phase either directly or through a second spacer, wherein the solid phase is a porous solid or a porous gel.
