Even easier than pollen is a leaf. Just grab one from any plant. Cut a small piece and put it under a coverslip. Try to eliminate air pockets. Plants have marvelous autofluorescence.

Dear all,
here it is, a silly question. I wish to demonstrate the capabilities of
our new system that can read-out fluorescence lifetime, anisotropy and
spectra wih TPE. I have plenty of information-rich images, either images
from tissue or fluorescent proteins, but I would like to prepare an
eye-catching set of images.
I am a bit bored to use Convallaria... any suggestion for a fluorescent or
autofluorescent sample tha could provide a relative complex emission that
could look good?
Cheers,
Alessandro
