Résumé
Fluorescence is a versatile property of many molecules called fluorophores. In plant cell walls, fluorescence is generally attributed to aromatic molecules such as lignin. In contrary to fluorescence intensity, fluorescence lifetime is independent from fluorophore concentration. So mapping fluorescence lifetime of plant cell walls represents a complementary approach to acquire chemical and structural information of cell wall components and interactions.
