What is it about?

One type of luminescent analysis involves the transfer of energy of absorbed light from a donor molecule to an acceptor molecule that emits light, which allows you to determine the concentration of the donor in solution. This energy transfer must occur at very short distances between the donor and acceptor molecules, which are provided by the sorption of both components on a micelle or nanoparticle.

Why is it important?

We identified the factors that determine the effect of amplification of the analytical signal in micelles (convergence and concentration of components, as well as changes in the properties of the microenvironment) and in the presence of solid nanoparticles (concentration, their nature and quantum effects) and showed how they can be controlled.

Perspectives

Our publication will be useful not only for improving luminescent, but also for other methods of analysis, as well as for physico-chemists, biochemists, biologists, physicians, medicals and specialists in the field of supramolecular chemistry and molecular spectroscopy.
