This review emphasizes advances in the experimental techniques of luminescence spectrometry and instrumentation relevant (or potentially relevant) to analytical utilization of molecular luminescence phenomena. Applications (especially of well-established techniques) are cited only when they seem unusually novel or of especially broad interest. The review was prepared with the help of a computer search profile of Chemical Abstracts titles and identifiers. It covers literature indexed by Chemical Abstracts from November 1983 (Vol. 99, issue 21) through October 1985 (Vol. 103, issue 20). In addition, journals scanned manually by the author are covered up through issues received by November 30, 1985. As in the previous review in this series, certain topics are excluded from coverage. They include the following: atomic fluorescence; molecular luminescence in flames, plasmas, or discharges; infrared fluorescence; solid-state phosphor and semiconductor luminescence; radioluminescence; liquid scintillation counting; and X-ray induced luminescence. The huge literature on fluorescent probing of biological macromolecular systems has been excluded, except for citation of a few reviews. Many other subject matter areas covered in a seemingly arbitrary manner, in order to keep the size of the review and the number of citations from becoming totally preposterous. 632 references.
