  1. 1. Single molecule dynamics

    Author : Lars Edman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Properties found in an ensemble of molecules may not be understood if it is not possible to study each molecule one by one. This thesis is concerned with the study of the dynamic properties of individual complex biological molecules as observed by confocal single-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy. READ MORE
