      Advances in Aggregation Induced Emission Materials in Biosensing and Imaging for Biomedical Applications - Part A Volume 184, highlights many aspects of AIE materials that can help future investigators, researchers, students and stakeholders perform research with ease. Emitting light is a fascinating photophysical phenomenon, its different forms have brought the attention of various disciplines of natural sciences for centuries. In the modern era of scientific generation, short-lived fluorescence light and its long-lived counterpart phosphorescence light has been employed for several chemo-sensing, bio-sensing, and bioimaging applications. The aggregation induced emission (AIE) phenomenon has appeared as a wand of modern science to convert aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) materials into AIE active materials for a wide range of biomedical applications including biosensing, bioimaging and localization of molecules for better understanding of molecular mechanisms. This volume covers a wide range of topics which are not currently available in a single volume, including ACQ & AIE concept development; intracellular pH, temperature and viscosity sensing; imaging of cell membrane, lipid droplet, lysosome, and mitochondria; biosensing and Imaging of bacteria; nucleus and nucleic acid imaging.
