If energy is absorbed but not emitted as fluorescence it may:

  • increase the energy of the molecules - manifest as an increase in temperature
  • use the energy to power a chemical reaction - manifest as a change in composition
  • release the energy at a wavelength other than that being observed for fluorescence.
