By conjugating luciferase protein to quantum dots, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) turns these useful fluorophores into a new class of bioluminescent probe. Quantum dots have ...
(Image: Nikon) STORM uses special fluorescent probes, called photoswitchable fluorophores, that can be switched between a fluorescent "on" state and a dark "off" state. These fluorophores are ...
