绿色荧光蛋白（GFP）的CPL光谱测量

圆偏振发光（CPL）测量了手性化合物的左、右旋圆偏振光发射强度的差异。与CD不同，CPL提供了关于手性分子激发态性质的信息。绿色荧光蛋白（GFP）是一种在暴露于紫外线时发出绿色荧光的蛋白质，并且已被证明具有手性性质。Application Note CPL Spectrum Measurement ofGreen Fluorescent Protein (GFP)2/2Application Note CD-0030 CPL Spectrum Measurement of Green Fluorescen t Protein (GFP ) Introduc t ion Circula r ly polarized l uminescence (CPL) measures the difference in the em i ssion i n tensit i es of left- a n d r ight-ha n ded circularly polarized l i ght of chiral compounds. Unlike CD， CPL provides informa t ion on t h e excited state properties of chiral molecules . CPL-300 Ci r cularly Po l a r ized Lumi n escence Spect r o p hotomete r Green f luoresce n ce p rotein (GFP) is a protein that emits g r een fluorescence when exposed to ultraviolet light and has been shown to h ave chiroptical propert i es. T h is application note illustrates the CPL and CD spectra of GFP obtained with the CPL-300 and J-1500， respectively.
