Questions and Answers

what is fluroscence?

  • The scattering of light as it passes through a substance
  • The direct absorption of light by a sample without emission
  • The reflection of light off a sample to create an image
  • The emission of light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation This is the correct answer. Fluorescence occurs when a fluorophore absorbs light at one wavelength and emits light at a longer wavelength. (correct)
  • What is IFM (Immunofluorescence Microscopy)?

  • A method for measuring the pH of solutions
  • A type of microscopy used primarily for electron imaging
  • A technique used to visualize proteins in cells using fluorescent antibodies (correct)
  • A technique used for DNA sequencing
  • Match the following components of confocal microscopy with their functions:

    <p>Laser = Provides focused light for illumination Pinhole = Enhances optical sectioning by excluding out-of-focus light Detector = Collects emitted fluorescence from the sample Computer = Processes and reconstructs images for analysis</p> Signup and view all the answers

    What occurs during the excitation of a compound in fluorescence microscopy?
