General description

Pyrene belongs to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon group. These are organic compounds which have two or more fused benzene rings in linear, angular and cluster arrangements. Pyrene is a four ring PAH.
Pyrene is a neat reference standard, which may be used for environmental analysis.

Application

Pyrene may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in environmental tobacco smoke samples using high-performance liquid chromatography technique.

Although distance dependence of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is well-studied and FRET has been extensively applied as "molecular ruler", only limited examples of orientation-dependent FRET have been reported. To create a robust FRET system that precisely reflects the orientation

Pyrene-functionalized oligonucleotides (PFOs) are increasingly explored as tools in fundamental research, diagnostics and nanotechnology. Their popularity is linked to the ability of pyrenes to function as polarity-sensitive and quenchable fluorophores, excimer-generating units, aromatic stacking moieties and nucleic acid duplex intercalators.

Pyrene is one of the most frequently used lipid-linked fluorophores. Its most characteristic features are a long excited state lifetime and (local) concentration-dependent formation of excimers. Pyrene is also hydrophobic and thus does not significantly distort the conformation of the
