Does anyone have experience with excitation wavelength of EGCG?

07 July 2013 1 938 Report

I want to observe the emission spectra of the flavonoid, EGCG in flurimeter.

According to the absorption spectra that I have found it absorbs in UV, between 250 and 300 nm, and this is the region where you should excite.
