Spectro–Microscopy of A
utofl uorescent Biom
olecules
Fluorescence microscopy has become an indispensable tool in life sciences. � e information within a microscopic image can be largely extended by the simultaneous acquisition of spectral information from a microscopic volume because � uorophores act as sensors to their nano-environment. In this work, di� erent classes of auto� uorescent biomolecules are spectro–microscopically investigated. It is shown that the photophysical properties of GFP derivatives largely depend on the composition of the surrounding protein shell, allowing for a better understanding of these proteins. Furthermore, the spectro–microscopic investigation of photosystems in living plant cells enables the observation of adaptation processes of plants to external and internal growth conditions. � e parallel implementation and establishment of novel spectro–microscopic modalities further extends the accessible parameter space, o� ering even deeper insights into the photophysics of auto� uorescent biomolecules.
Key words: auto� uorescent biomolecules, spectral information
