Fluorescence Quantum Yield of Thioflavin T in Rigid Isotropic Solution and Incorporated into the Amyloid Fibrils
Figure 4
Radiative lifetime determined for thioflavin T in solutions of different viscosity and temperature (see Table 1) (open circles, bottom axis) and for the dye in the reverse micelles (open squares, top axis).
Radiative lifetime for the dye in the reverse micelles were determined on the basis of the data given in the work [33], where w0 = [H2O]/[AOT] is the water to surfactant molar ratio. Radiative lifetime for the dye in rigid solution (T/η→0) (closed circle) was determined on the basis of the experimental dependence of 1/q on T/η and the value of fluorescence lifetime determined previously [31].
