Thus far, the best tools for imaging in live, whole animals have been far-red fluorescent proteins because both autofluorescence and light absorption by the animal's tissue are minimized at the ...

For Absorption Spectrometer: 5mm white-light LED (light emitting diode). For Fluorometer: a 5 mm UV LED For Spectroscope and wavelength calibration: a compact fluorescent light bulb somewhere in the ...

Fluorescent probes are molecules that absorb light of a specific wavelength and emit light of a different, typically longer, wavelength (a process known as fluorescence), and are used to study ...

By nature, each fluorescent dye exhibits a unique absorbance and emission spectra, resulting from the change in energy ... In fluorometric assays, on the other hand, the concentration of a target is ...
