	Fluorescein - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fluorescein is a fluorophore commonly used in microscopy, in a type of dye laser as the gain medium, and in forensics and serology to detect latent blood stains.
		Fluorescein angiography is used to diagnose and categorize age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, inflammatory intraocular conditions, and intraocular tumors.

	Fluorescein angiography - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fluorescein angiography, or fluorescent angiography, is a technique for examining the circulation of the retina.
		It involves injection of sodium fluorescein into the systemic circulation, and then an angiogram is obtained by photographing the fluorescence emitted after illumination of the retina with blue light at a wavelength of 490 nanometers.
		Fluorescein enters the ocular circulation from the internal carotid artery via the ophthalmic artery.

	Dark Reader - Fluorescein
		Fluorescein (ex = 492 nm, em = 525 nm) is one of the most widely used fluorophors and is employed as a detection agent in numerous assays.
		The Dark Reader is at least twice as sensitive as a UV device for the detection of fluorescein and up to 16-fold when the dye is in a test-tube or in a gel apparatus.
		A simplified summary of the basic protocols for the detection of biotinylated proteins by either (A) fluorescein fluorescence or (B) luminol luminescence is shown in the Figure.

	Fluorescein Angiogram
		Fluorescein angiography is a test which allows the blood vessels in the back of the eye to be photographed as a fluorescent dye is injected into the bloodstream via your hand or arm.
		Although commonly referred to as fluorescein, the dye used in angiography is fluorescein sodium, the sodium salt of fluorescein.
		Fluorescein angiography is most frequently used for evaluation of patients with diabetic retinopathy, occlusive diseases such as retinal vein and arterial occlusions, and evaluation for wet macular degeneration.

	Fluorescein As A Field Worthy Latent Bloodstain Detection System
		Fluorescein was considered to be the reagent with the greatest potential in the detection of latent bloodstains in the California Criminalistics Institute (CCI) Maucieri and Monk study in 1991.
		By attaining the fore mentioned goals, it is hoped that the fluorescein technique will be appreciated as a truly field worthy and practical procedure remaining within the scope and skill levels of crime scene technicians and investigators, hence resulting in an improvement in documentation.
		In previous literature, fluorescein (oxidized color state) was reduced to fluorescin (reduced colorless state) via heating the fluorescein (1.0 gram) in 10% NaOH (100ml) with 10.0 grams zinc powder.

	Fluorescein Angiography: definition, about the test, potential risks - Kellogg Eye Center
		Fluorescein angiography is a diagnostic procedure which uses a special camera to take a series of photographs of the retina, or light sensitive tissue in the back of the eye.
		Fluorescein angiography is often done to follow the course of a disease such as diabetes, a disease that can cause the blood vessels of the retina to leak blood or fluid.
		Without the help of fluorescein angiography, your ophthalmologist would not know exactly where a leak is to guide the pinpoint accuracy of laser treatment.

	Invitrogen - Molecular Probes - Section 1.5 - Fluorescein, Oregon Green and Rhodamine Green Dyes
		Furthermore, fluorescein's relatively high photobleaching rate limits the sensitivity that can be obtained, a significant disadvantage for applications requiring ultrasensitive detection, such as DNA sequencing (Section 8.2), fluorescence in situ hybridization (Section 8.5) and localization of low-abundance receptors.
		Fluorescein is frequently used as a hapten on a primary detection reagent that can be either amplified or converted into a longer-wavelength or electron-dense signal with the appropriate secondary detection reagent.
		Because of the near match of their absorption maxima on proteins (~498 nm and ~512 nm) to the strong 488 nm and 514 nm spectral lines of the argon-ion laser, the Oregon Green 488 and Oregon Green 514 fluorophores are important dyes for both confocal laser-scanning microscopy and flow cytometry applications.
