Xanthines Studied via Femtosecond Fluorescence Spectroscopy.
Xanthines represent a wide class of compounds closely related to the DNA bases adenine and guanine. Ubiquitous in the human body, they are capable of replacing natural bases in double helices and give rise to four-stranded structures. Although the use of their fluorescence for analytical purposes was proposed, their fluorescence properties have not been properly characterized so far. The presen...
متن کاملCytosine excited state dynamics studied by femtosecond fluorescence upconversion and transient absorption spectroscopy
We report a femtosecond spectroscopic study of the DNA base cytosine in aqueous solution at room temperature. Two different experimental techniques were used, fluorescence upconversion and transient absorption, providing complementary information on the excited state relaxation. While the fluorescence decay is clearly bi-exponential, with an ultrafast (0.2 ps) and a slower (1.3 ps) component, t...
متن کاملExcited-state Reaction Dynamics of Bacteriobhodopsin Studied by Femtosecond Spectroscopy
The photodynamics of bacteriorhodopsin were studied by transient absorption and gain measurements after excitation with femtosecond pulses at 620 nm. With probing pulses at longer wavelengths (A> 770 nm) the previously reported formation of the J intermediate (with a time constant of 500f 100 fs) was confirmed. With probing pulses around 700 nm, a faster process with a relaxation time of 200 rt...
متن کاملEarly Amyloidogenic Oligomerization Studied through Fluorescence Lifetime Correlation Spectroscopy
Amyloidogenic protein aggregation is a persistent biomedical problem. Despite active research in disease-related aggregation, the need for multidisciplinary approaches to the problem is evident. Recent advances in single-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy are valuable for examining heterogenic biomolecular systems. In this work, we have explored the initial stages of amyloidogenic aggregation b...
متن کاملInterference between femtosecond pulses observed via time-resolved spontaneous fluorescence
We study spontaneous fluorescence excited by a series of phase-controlled femtosecond pulses in an inhomogeneously broadened medium containing a frequency comb of sharp spectral holes. We show that evolution of the spontaneous fluorescence on picosecond time scale is sensitive to interference between the excitation pulses and that varying the relative phase between the excitation pulses changes...
