Abstract
This study investigated fluorescence photobleaching and the recovery of fluorescein sodium (FS)-loaded carbomer films. To mitigate errors caused by the self-quenching effect, the experiments were conducted at FS concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, and 1 wt%. The results revealed a nonlinear relationship between fluorescence intensity and FS concentration (0.1-1 wt%). Moreover, the degree and rate of photobleaching increased with FS concentration. The recovery level and recovery rate exhibited contrasting relationships with FS concentration. Higher FS concentrations were associated with a longer recovery time, which can be attributed to the prolonged irradiation, resulting in a bleached region that was larger than the initially irradiated area.
