First, its principle is described and a short historical overview is given. Subsequently some principal methods and applications of FRET sensing and imaging are described (with some emphasis on fluorescence lifetime imaging, FLIM), and finally two innovative FRET techniques are presented in more detail. Applications are focused on measurements of living cells.}, language = {en} }
