Individual bioaerosol particle discrimination by multi-photon excited fluorescence.
Femtosecond laser induced multi-photon excited fluorescence (MPEF) from individual airborne particles is tested for the first time for discriminating bioaerosols. The fluorescence spectra, analysed in 32 channels, exhibit a composite character originating from simultaneous two-photon and three-photon excitation at 790 nm. Simulants of bacteria aggregates (clusters of dyed polystyrene microspher...
متن کاملTwo-photon excited hemoglobin fluorescence
We discovered that hemoglobin emits high energy Soret fluorescence when two-photon excited by the visible femtosecond light sources. The unique spectral and temporal characteristics of hemoglobin fluorescence were measured by using a time-resolved spectroscopic detection system. The high energy Soret fluorescence of hemoglobin shows the spectral peak at 438 nm with extremely short lifetime. Thi...
متن کاملFluorescence preselection of bioaerosol for single-particle mass spectrometry.
We have designed, constructed, and tested a system that pre-selects the biological fraction of airborne particles from the overall aerosol. The preselection is based on fluorescence emission excited by a continuous 266 nm laser beam. This beam is one of two cw beams used to measure the aerodynamic particle size of sampled particles. The intention in our system is that single particles, based on...
متن کاملSingle- and multi-photon excited fluorescence from serotonin complexed with beta-cyclodextrin.
The fluorescence of serotonin on binding with beta-cyclodextrin has been studied using both steady state and time-resolved methods. Steady state fluorescence intensity of serotonin at 340 nm showed approximately 30% increase in intensity on binding with K(A) approximately 60 dm(3) mol(-1) and the fluorescence lifetimes showed a corresponding increase. In contrast, the characteristic green fluor...
متن کاملMechanism of two-photon excited hemoglobin fluorescence emission.
Hemoglobin, one of the most important proteins in the human body, is composed of “heme” groups (iron-containing rings) and “globins” (proteins). We investigate the two-photon excited fluorescence of hemoglobin and its subunit components (heme and globin). We measure the hemoglobin fluorescence lifetime by using a streak camera of ps resolution and confirm that its lifetime is in femtosecond sca...
