    • Methods and apparatus for fluorescence detection which can increase sensitivity by as much as 20 to 1000-fold are described. This method can preferably also decrease the contribution of sample autofluorescence to the detected signal. The method uses coupling of excited fluorophores with the surface plasmon resonance present in thin conductive films, for example silver, gold, aluminum, copper, or the like. The phenomenon of surface plasmon-coupled emission (SPCE) occurs for fluorophores in a volume adjacent to the conductive layer. This interaction is independent of the mode of excitation, that is, does not require evanescent wave or surface-plasmon excitation. However, such modes of excitation can be advantageous. SPCE can occur over a narrow angular distribution, converting normally isotropic emission into easily collected directional emission. In preferred embodiments, up to 50% of the emission from unoriented samples can be collected, usually much more than typical fluorescence collection efficiencies, which can be 1% or less. Examples are presented showing how simple optical configurations can be used in diagnostics, sensing, or biotechnology applications. Surface plasmon-coupled emission is likely to find widespread applications throughout the biosciences.
    • 描述了将灵敏度提高多达20到1000倍的用于荧光检测的方法和装置。 该方法也可以优选地降低样品自发荧光对检测信号的贡献。 该方法使用激发的荧光团与存在于薄导电膜(例如银,金,铝,铜等)中的表面等离子体共振的耦合。 在与导电层相邻的体积中的荧光团发生表面等离激元耦合发射(SPCE)的现象。 这种相互作用与激发模式无关,也就是说,不需要ev逝波或表面等离子体激发。 然而,这种激发模式可能是有利的。 SPCE可以发生在窄角分布上,将正常的各向同性发射转换成易于收集的定向发射。 在优选的实施方案中,可以收集来自无取向样品的高达50%的发射,通常比典型的荧光收集效率高得多,其可以为1%或更少。 现在举例说明如何在诊断,感测或生物技术应用中使用简单的光学配置。 表面等离子体耦合发射很可能在整个生物科学领域得到广泛的应用。

    • Described is a new approach to fluorescence sensing based on a mixture of fluorophores, one of which is sensitive to the desired analyte. If a long lifetime analyte-insensitive fluorophore is mixed with a short lifetime analyte-sensitive fluorophore, the modulation of the emission at conveniently low frequencies becomes equal to the fractional fluorescence intensity of the sensing fluorophore. Under these conditions the modulation can be used to determine the analyte concentration. This can be used with any fluorophore which changes intensity in response to analyte, and does not require the sensing fluorophore to display a change in lifetime. The feasibility of modulation-based sensing was demonstrated using mixtures of 6-carboxyfluorescein and [Ru2,2′(bipyridyl)3]2+ as a pH sensor and of the calcium probe Fluo-3 and [Ru2,2′(bipyridyl)3]2+ as a calcium sensor.

    • The present invention describes the development of thin film calibration strips for microscopy/spectroscopy systems and a simple method/routine to conduct instrument calibration using partially (uniaxially) oriented strip to calibrate microscopy system without the prior knowledge of exact polarization of the strip. The invention describes results from studies including a styryl derivative (LDS 798) embedded in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) film. These films were progressively stretched up to 8 folds. Vertical and horizontal components of absorptions and fluorescence were measured and dichroic ratios were determined for different film stretching ratios. The stretched films have high polarization values for isotropic excitation. The isotropic and stretched PVA films doped with LDS 798 can be used as etalons in near infra red (NIR) spectroscopic measurements. The high polarization standards of the present invention have applications in NIR imaging microscopy where they can be used for correcting for instrumental factor in polarization measurements.
