Abstract
Two-photon fluorescence microscopy has proven to be an useful technique for imaging biological systems. Good spatial resolution, reduced photobleaching, and efficient rejection of excitation wavelength from emitted fluorescence are the main characteristics of this technique. As part of this work, extension of two-photon microscopy to time-resolved polarization imaging of probe molecules inside STO cells are shown. Depending on the type of probe molecules and the nature of their interaction with cellular constituents, different degrees of rotational correlation times are obtained.
