    摘要: A method is disclosed for analyzing particles or biomolecules in a liquid sample, including: detecting a signal and fluctuations in the signal from a detection volume in the sample; wherein the signal is generated from signal-generating molecules in the medium surrounding the particles or biomolecules and the fluctuations are transient reductions in the signal as the particles or biomolecules transit through the detection volume; and analyzing the detected fluctuations to obtain information about the particles or biomolecules in the liquid sample. At least one example embodiment of the present invention relates to a fluorescence correlation spectroscopy system including a laser, a zero-mode waveguide, guiding device for guiding the laser into the zero-mode waveguide, device for collecting fluorescence emission from excited molecules within the waveguide, a detector for detecting the fluorescence emission and means for autocorrelating the detected fluorescence signal, wherein the detector comprises a photomultiplier tube. Moreover, at least one embodiment relates to the use of a fluorescence correlation spectroscopy system for analyzing molecules of interest in a sample by detecting and analyzing fluctuations in a fluorescence signal that is generated from sample molecules surrounding the molecules of interest, wherein the fluctuations are transient reductions in the detected fluorescence signal.
