A Convenient Lecture Demonstration of Fluorescence.
Burrows, Hugh D.; Axtell, Darrell D.
Journal of Chemical Education, v60 n3 p228 Mar 1983

Systems whose acidic and basic forms have different fluorescent characteristics are used to demonstrate fluorescence visible and invisible to the naked eye. (JN)
