Abstract
We are approaching single molecule detection in fluid solution. Our current limit with dissolved dye molecules is equivalent to the detection of 8 rhodamine-6G fluorophores on a single species. Documentation of this limit is given by the detection of microspheres containing the simulated equivalent of 25 rhodamine-6G fluorophores.
