Researchers from several Parisian institutions have worked together to develop a non-destructive approach to study how ...

A team of US researchers has gained new insights into how large protein molecules consistently fold themselves into useful ...

Explore how time-resolved fluorescence enables sensitive monitoring of dye–protein binding in microliter volumes.

Researchers at Hokkaido University have engineered a fluorescent dye that keeps glowing even when submerged in superacidic ...

Modern bioassays tend to fall under three common modalities: colorimetric, luminometric or fluorometric. Colorimetric assays record the amount of light absorbed by a reporter compound. This absorbance ...

Spectacular fluorescence has been spotted in 27 species that we didn't previously know were capable of glowing in the dark. The discoveries were made during a three-year study in the Red Sea in Egypt ...

Shining a beam of light into potentially contaminated water samples may hold the key to real-time detection of hydrocarbons and pesticides in water. Researchers are testing the use of fluorescence to ...

Flow cytometry detects and measures the chemical and physical properties and characteristics of particles or cells within a population. Samples are suspended in a liquid, held in a tube, and counted ...

In the early 1960s, Mack Fulwyler joined the lab of Marvin Van Dilla at the Los Alamos National Laboratory as an engineer to study the effect of fallout radiation from nuclear weapons testing on ...
