Inverse Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (iFCS) is a variant of FCS where unlabeled particles in solution, or domains in membranes, displace their surrounding, signal-generating molecules and thereby generate fluctuations. iFCS has to date been applied to unlabeled as well as labeled particles and protein molecules, using fluorescence as well as Raman scattering as a signal source, in diffraction-limited detection volumes as well as in nano-wells, and on fixed surfaces as well as in lipid bilayers. This review describes these applications and discusses the potentials and pitfalls when using iFCS.
反向荧光相关光谱(iFCS)是一种 FCS 的变体,其中溶液中的未标记粒子或膜中的域会置换其周围的信号产生分子,从而产生波动。迄今为止,iFCS 已应用于未标记和标记的粒子以及蛋白质分子,使用荧光和拉曼散射作为信号源,在衍射受限的检测体积以及纳米井中,在固定表面以及脂质双层上。本综述描述了这些应用,并讨论了使用 iFCS 时的潜力和陷阱。
