fluorescence and is

fluorescence and then

The amount of fluorescence can then be measured to tell whether or not a reaction took place.
In a chemiluminescent reaction, the direct product of a reaction is delivered in an excited electronic state, which then decays into an electronic ground state through either fluorescence or phosphorescence, depending on the spin state of the electronic excited state formed.
For example, visible light is emitted by the coupling of electronic states in atoms and molecules ( then the phenomenon is called fluorescence or phosphorescence ).

For fluorescence microscopy a smear of washed sperm cells are made, airdried, permealized and then stained.
Sometimes, the excited state is metastable, so the relaxation back out of the excited state is delayed ( necessitating anywhere from a few microseconds to hours depending on the material ): the process then corresponds to either one of two phenomena, depending on the type of transition and hence the wavelength of the emitted optical photon: delayed fluorescence or phosphorescence, also called after-glow.

If after some time the fluorescence doesn't reach the initial level anymore, then some part of the fluorescence is caused by an immobile fraction ( that cannot be replenished by diffusion ).
The mean fluorescence in the region can then be plotted versus time since the photobleaching, and the resulting curve can yield kinetic coefficients, such as those for the protein's binding reactions and / or the protein's diffusion coefficient in the medium where it is being monitored.
However, if diffusion along the z axis does contribute to fluorescence recovery then it must be accounted for.
If a large number of proteins bind to sites in a small volume such that there the fluorescence signal is dominated by the signal from bound proteins, and if this binding is all in a single state with an off rate k < sub > off </ sub >, then the fluorescence as a function of time is given by
# Exchange is much slower than diffusion ( or whatever transport mechanism is responsible for mobility ), as only then does the diffusing fraction recovery rapidly and then acts as a the source of fluorescent protein that binds and replaces the bound bleached protein and so increases the fluorescence.
Theranostic probes – capable of detection and treatment of cancer in a single treatment-are nanoparticles that have binding sites on their shell that allow them to attach to a desired location ( typically cancerous cells ) then can be imaged through dual modality imagery ( an imaging strategy that uses x-rays and radionuclide imaging ) and through near-infrared fluorescence.
