We prepared fluorescent microspheres with notably large Stokes shift and long-wavelength fluorescence by applying fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between two common julolidine dyes. Short distance between dye molecules caused by high dye concentration results in efficient FRET in microspheres. However, adequate dye concentration and moderate molar ratio of the donor and acceptor should be chosen to avoid aggregation of dye molecules, which leads to the decrease of fluorescent intensity. Microrspheres with average distance between dye molecules of 1.94 nm and molar ratio of 3.08:1 realize highly efficient FRET with no fluorescence of donor and intense long-wavelength emission of acceptor. In addition, the applied solvent evaporation method for preparing microspheres provided better protection of dyes from ambient medium than traditional surface-labeled method. These results demonstrate the feasibility of applying FRET in microspheres to expand useful fluorescent probes, and reveal their potential application in bioassays field. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
