How Does Photobleaching Impact Toxicological Studies?
In toxicological research, photobleaching can affect the reliability of fluorescence-based assays. Fluorescent markers are often used to detect and measure the concentration of toxic substances in biological samples. If photobleaching occurs, it may lead to underestimation of the concentration, potentially skewing results and affecting risk assessments. Therefore, understanding and mitigating photobleaching is essential for obtaining accurate and reproducible data in toxicological studies.
