Hydrophobic fluorescent probes introduce artifacts into single molecule tracking experiments due to non-specific binding.
Single-molecule techniques are powerful tools to investigate the structure and dynamics of macromolecular complexes; however, data quality can suffer because of weak specific signal, background noise and dye bleaching and blinking. It is less well-known, but equally important, that non-specific bind...
