Fluorescence: Fluorescence in Nanobiotechnology: Sophisticated Fluorophores for Novel Applications (Small 15/2012)

The cover picture shows semiconductor quantum dots engaged in Förster resonance energy transfer with fluorophore‐functionalized biomolecules. Multiple‐color lifetime analysis of sophisticated systems and nanometer spatial resolution are some of the important advantages of fluorescence in nanobiotechnology, report N. Hildebrandt and co‐workers. Have a look at this colorful world on page 2297 and discover the secrets of fluorescence in nanobiotechnology!
