Materials for FRET donors and acceptors

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Authors from the US Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, from George Mason University in Manassas, Va., and from the National Research Center on nanoStructures and bioSystems at Surfaces in Modena, Italy, recently wrote a review in which they discuss the benefits and limitations of various fluorophores that can be used as donors and acceptors in bioanalytical Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) techniques. FRET uses an excited donor fluorophore to transfer energy to an acceptor in a nonradiative process that takes place through dipole-dipole interactions. Optimal...Read full article
