Abstract

The pH dependence of the fluorescence lifetime of BCECF both in solution and in intact cells of Halobacteriun salinarum has been measured with time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. A correlation between pH and fluorescence lifetime in vivo is different from that in vitro. The difference is ascribed to the local field produced by some protein membrane in a biological system.
