text: Fluorescence spectroscopy is used in, among others, biochemical, medical, and chemical research fields for analyzing organic compounds. There has also been a report of its use in differentiating malignant skin tumors from benign.
  Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy (AFS) techniques are useful in other kinds of analysis/measurement of a compound present in air or water, or other media, such as CVAFS which is used for heavy metals detection, such as mercury.
  Fluorescence can also be used to redirect photons, see fluorescent solar collector.
  Additionally, Fluorescence spectroscopy can be adapted to the microscopic level using microfluorimetry
  In analytical chemistry, fluorescence detectors are used with HPLC.
  In the field of water research, fluorescence spectroscopy can be used to monitor water quality by detecting organic pollutants. Recent advances in computer science and machine learning have even enabled detection of bacterial contamination of water
