Bioanalysis: Fluorescence, Light Microscopy and Microfluidics

Fluorescence spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique widely used in bioanalysis to study the structure, interactions, and dynamics of biomolecules. It involves exciting a fluorescent molecule (fluorophore) with light and detecting the emitted fluorescence, which provides information about the local environment and properties of the molecule.   Fluorescence Labeling To study biomolecules using fluorescence, they […]
