   Working Principle   

It is a rapid and sensitive method for the characterization of molecular components present in a sample. Fluorescence spectroscopy is a type of electromagnetic spectroscopy which analyzes fluorescent molecules. It exploits the phenomenon of electron excitation upon collision with high energy particles like photons and other excited electrons. In the process of transition of polyatomic fluorescent molecules (fluorophores) from their higher energy level (excited state) to a ground state by lowering their energy level, photons are emitted. Fluorophores play the most important role in fluorescence spectroscopy. Fluorophores are the components in molecules that impart fluorescence. Mostly, fluorophores are the molecules which contain aromatic rings such as tyrosine, tryptophan, fluorescein, etc.



   User Instructions   


     1. Provide solid samples in the powder form. Minimum required amount is approximately 40-50mg.
     2. Samples may be in liquid form. The required minimum amount is 2-3 ml.
     3. Samples can be submitted as thin film, Solid pellets, powder etc.
     4. MS-DS (Material Safety Data Sheet) should be given along with samples to ensure that there sample being given. Samples should not be toxic or hazardous.
      Samples will not be accepted unless MSDS is provided.
