Appendix IV: Fluorescence
Additional information from the fluorescence section of the Pittcon Review article.
Manufacturer: Horiba Scientific
Product name: Delta Series (DeltaPro and DeltaFlex)
Fluorescence TCSPC lifetime systems
New this year: A simple to use filter based system (DeltaPro). A modular high-end system, comprising monochromators, polarizers, sources (LEDs, laser diodes, supercontinuum lasers) and detectors (including NIR) (DeltaFlex).
The following characteristics apply to both instruments except when stated otherwise:
Can be used for: Lab, process analysis
Measurement Mode: Lifetime fluorescence
Special Features: Can be used as phosphorimeter (DeltaPro only)
Software available as separate product.
Suggested applications: Kinetics, anisotropy and TRES (time resolved emission spectra), FRET, measurement of physical constants (such as local viscosity), binding studies and photophysical characterization of molecular interactions.
Unique features: Fast: measurements from 25ps to seconds
