1. The acceptor fluorophore in turn emits light at its characteristic wavelength. 2. Absorption of a photon by a fluorophore takes a few picoseconds. 3. It is at this G-quadruplex that the fluorophore binds. 4. A fluorophore is a dipole, surrounded by water molecules. 5. Narrow peaks indicate that the fluorophore sample is highly monodisperse. 6. Freed from the quencher, the fluorophore now shines when scanned with a laser. 7. This saves the cost of modifying the primary antibodies to directly carry a fluorophore . 8. Richard Meyer then termed fluorophore in 1897 to describe a chemical group associated with fluorescence. 9. The optic nerve was injected with a fluorophore , causing retinal ganglion cells to fluoresce. 10. This causes the separation of the stem and hence of the fluorophore and the quencher.
