The combination of kinetic live imaging with conventional fluorescence microscopy techniques has become an integral part of cellular analysis methodologies. Fluorescence imaging relies on illumination of fluorescent molecules with a defined wavelength of light ideally near the peak of the fluorophore excitation spectrum, and detection of light emitted at a longer wavelength. Commonly used live cell fluorescent molecules, such as fluorescent probes or dyes, and fluorescently labeled proteins have provided a range of tools to investigate virtually any cellular process of interest.
