An Introduction FCS is a high-resolution spatial and temporal
analysis of very low concentrations of biomolecules
This is done by measuring the spontaneous intensity fluctuations caused by the minute deviations of the system from equilibrium

analyze relaxation Study the Behavior of Individual Molecules Study Serum Biomarkers Monitoring biological molecular association
and disassociation processes

History 1916 – Smoluchowski gave the first description of
amplitude and temporal decay of number fluctuations in diffusion system
1972-1974 – Magde, Elson, Webb published book on potential of FCS and first developed the technique at Cornell University
1990 – Rigler reached single molecule detection limit on FCS
1994 – Eigen and Rigler proposed dual color cross correlation for FCS
2000 – FCS evolved and also dual color cross correlation made and used

FCS General PrinciplesFCS is a method in which the florescence intensity arising from a very small volume containing fluorescent molecules is correlated/analyzed to obtain information about the processes that give rise to fluctuations in the fluorescence. [1]

Brownian Motion This concept dictates the appearance and
disappearance of fluorescent molecules in small observation volume.

Technique optimization1. Small number of molecules. 2. Large number of molecules suppress
effect of fluctuations.3. Low concentration is implied by 1.4. Small area or cavity. One or less
molecule.5. Number of fluctuations is inversely
related to number of molecules.

Why low concentration? Magnitude of number fluctuations =
Mean square deviations

Measurements During FCS you measure the Fluorescent
Intensity. Data not very useful yet! Notice that these fluctuations are caused by
diffusion of fluorescent molecules through the cavity or just changes in fluorescence over time

Recall: Intensity autocorrelation g(t) = <I(t) I(t + t)>t
For small t

For larger tt

2D & 3D Correlation Function3D
r and l are radial and axial dimensions of volume.
For large r/l, same as 2D.

Diffusion Coefficient From autocorrelation plot we get N and The relationship between diffusion time
and coefficient is;
r is the radius of cavity – can be measured.
Therefore, we can find D!

Cross-correlation curves at different time points during an endonucleolytic cleavage reaction. Dotted lines are the original data. Fitted curves are given in solid lines. During the reaction the cross-correlation amplitude, which is a measure of the reaction progress, gradually decreases.
