Using a laser beam to inactivate fluorescence dye molecules connected to proteins or lipids on a cell membrane is called
A)liposome formation.
B)electrophoresis.
C)photobleaching.
D)freeze-fracturing.
E)affinity labeling.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Photobleaching is the process where fluorescence dyes lose their ability to fluoresce due to being exposed to a light source, such as a laser beam, often used in microscopy to study the location or movement of specific proteins or lipids by selectively inactivating their fluorescent tags.
