Abstract
The work presented here reports the use of long lifetime (>1 μs) BSA Au clusters as a cellular/tissue, time gated, intensity imaging probe. By collecting the emission signal 50 ns post excitation, one can off-gate the intense auto-fluorescence background, thereby greatly enhancing the clarity/specificity in fluorescence imaging.
