Trends in fabrication, data gathering, validation, and application of molecular fluorometer and spectrofluorometer

Technological advances have widely improved the field of research as spectroscopic methods are now flexible in analyzing different sample matrix. There have been various methods used in applications of spectrofluorometer, but some were costly, time consuming or complicated for routine analysis, creating barrier for students to understand the basic concepts of fluorescence. This review focuses on the different fluorometer designs and techniques which promote cost efficiency and/or having modifications without compromise in data gathering, and its applications to various scientific fields. The usage of pesticides has a wide range of effects when it comes to the environment and to human health especially when it enters the food chain. The characteristic of having a low-cost, user-friendly and efficient device can occur in different variations as materials and technology are employed to fluorescence detection which primarily contributes to the different applications of the device such as in food safety and security.
