Optimizing Resolution in Constant-Energy Synchronous Spectrofluorimetry

Abstract: Constant-energy synchronous luminescence (CESL) offers significant improvements in selectivity and sensitivity compared to the more conventional constant-wavelength synchronous luminescence (CWSL) technique. Despite this consideration, practical problems can be encountered that have not been reported in the literature. This paper offers an explanation of these technical issues—why they occur and how they can be avoided—and the method optimized to take full advantage of this powerful technique.

“…It is clear from the above discussion that both CWSS and CESS techniques could be used for estimation of the cited drugs with high sensitivity down to nanogram levels. In comparison between the two developed methods, the CESS offered an improvement in sensitivity and selectivity compared to the more conventional CWSS technique, which was in agreement with the reported literature [58]. This can be attributed to the reduction of solvent Raman scatter and Rayleigh scatter interferences with the fluorescence spectra of the analytes [59].…”

“…For multifluorophoric samples at higher concentrations, despite the presence of factors such as light attenuation (LA), self-absorption, energy transfer (ET) and collisional quenching (CQ), it has been observed earlier that the use of right-angle sample geometry is capable of providing better analytical utility, as compared to front-face or 45°-angle sample geometry [6,7]. Synchronous fluorescence scan (SFS) gives a narrower and simpler spectrum and is of extensive use for multi-fluorophoric analysis [6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20]. In this method, both excitation and emission monochromators are scanned simultaneously keeping a fixed wavelength interval (∆λ) between them (constant ∆λ mode).…”

“…This complication can be overcome by using special techniques such as synchronous spectrometry. Constant-energy synchronous luminescence spectrometry (CESLS) [9,10] , one important embranchment, has been successfully applied to BaP identification in PAHs mixture [11][12][13][14] .…”
