Abstract: The fluorescence lifetime provides a useful quantitative spectroscopic parameter that is sensitive to the fluorophore local environment.A distinct advantage of the fluorescence lifetime over the fluorescence intensity lies with the independence of the lifetime with respect to the fluorophore concentration.A variety of fluorophores exist that exhibit measurable lifetime changes while in the presence of physiologically relevant analytes such as Ca++ and Mg++, and as a consequence of variations in local environment conditions such as pH.There
