In this Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) interview, Garth Simpson of Purdue University explains how a simple geometric effect at interfaces produced a 4.5-degree rotation in fluorescence emission from a naproxen monolayer.
Time‐resolved Fluorescence can analyze potential health benefits from antioxidant activity of curcumin, found in turmeric. Curcuminoids, weakly fluorescent in aqueous solution, show quantum yield increases upon interaction with a protein, such as human serum albumin.
