1Fluorescent lamp — A fluorescent lamp or fluorescent tube is a gas discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor. The excited mercury atoms produce short wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor to fluoresce, producing visible light.Unlike… …
2Fluorescence spectroscopy — aka fluorometry or spectrofluorometry, is a type of electromagnetic spectroscopy which analyzes fluorescence from a sample. It involves using a beam of light, usually ultraviolet light, that excites the electrons in molecules of certain compounds …
3XANES — X ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES), also known as Near edge X ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) is a type of absorption spectroscopy. NEXAFS also at times used the abbreviation EXAFS. XANES data indicate the absorption peaks due to …

5Enzyme assay — Beckman DU640 UV/Vis spectrophotometer. Enzyme assays are laboratory methods for measuring enzymatic activity. They are vital for the study of enzyme kinetics and enzyme inhibition. Contents …
6X-ray fluorescence — (XRF) is the emission of characteristic secondary (or fluorescent) X rays from a material that has been excited by bombarding with high energy X rays or gamma rays. The phenomenon is widely used for elemental analysis and chemical analysis,… …
7Plate reader — Microplate Readers (also known as Plate readers) are laboratory instruments designed to detect biological, chemical or physical events of samples in microtiter plates. They are widely used in research, drug discovery, bioassay validation, quality …
8Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy — (FCS) is a common technique used by physicists, chemists, and biologists to experimentally characterize the dynamics of fluorescent species (e.g. single fluorescent dye molecules in nanostructured materials, autofluorescent proteins in living… …
