Global analysis of unmatched polarized fluorescence decay curves of systems exhibiting a residual anisotropy at long times
A previous study of the performance of the global, i.e., simultaneous, analysis of unmatched polarized decay traces [Crutzen, M.; et al. J. Phys. Chem. 1993, 97, 8133] is extended for the time-dependent anisotropy r(t), given by r(t) = β exp(-t/Φ) + r∞. The evaluation was done with computer-generate...

A previous study of the performance of the global, i.e., simultaneous, analysis of unmatched polarized decay traces [Crutzen, M.; et al. J. Phys. Chem. 1993, 97, 8133] is extended for the time-dependent anisotropy r(t), given by r(t) = β exp(-t/Φ) + r∞. The evaluation was done with computer-generated and experimentally collected data. Two different schemes of analysis of unmatched polarized decay traces were considered. In scheme A the decay curves measured with the analyzer set at 0°, 54.7°, and 90° with respect to the polarization of the incident light were globally analyzed, while only the traces at 0° and 90° were taken into account in scheme B. Data were simulated for various Φ/τ ratios (0.1, 1, 3, and 10). The value obtained for the fluorescence lifetime τ was accurate and precise for all cases considered. For Φ/τ = 0.1, 1, and 3 (τ = 5 ns) the parameters β and Φ were well recovered. The accuracy and precision were very similar to the results obtained with matched decay traces.

When r0 was fixed to the true value, the analysis with schemes A and B yielded the same accuracy and precision as the analysis of the matched curves.
