Abstract: | Nanosecond time-resolved emission spectra (TRES) are fluorescence emission spectra obtained at discrete times during the fluorescence decay. The complete data-set obtainable is a surface representing the intensity at all wavelengths and times during the emission decay time. When 2-p-toluidinonaphthalene-6-sulfonate (2,6 p-TNS) is adsorbed to egg lecithin vesicles, an excited-state reaction associated with energetic changes of the emitting species occurs on the nanosecond time scale. Convolution of the fluorescence decay with the excitation response introduces an artifact in the time-dependent spectra. A precedure is described by which this artifact can be eliminated. The data for the generation of time-resolved emission spectra are obtained with a computer-interfaced instrument based on the single-photon counting method. |
