  "term": "Fluorimeter",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "An instrument used to measure the intensity of fluorescence emitted by a sample after it has been excited by light of a specific wavelength. It typically consists of a light source, an excitation monochromator, a sample holder, an emission monochromator, and a detector. Fluorimeters are widely used in analytical chemistry for quantitative analysis of fluorescent compounds.",
