- Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is commonly used to estimate diffusion and reaction rates. In FCS the fluorescence coming from a small volume is recorded and the autocorrelation function (ACF) of the fluorescence fluctuations is computed. Scaling out the fluctuations due to the emission process, this ACF can be related to the ACF of the fluctuations in the number of observed fluorescent molecules. In this paper the ACF of the molecule number fluctuations is studied theoretically, with no approximations, for a reaction-diffusion system in which the fluorescence changes with binding and unbinding. Theoretical ACFs are usually derived assuming that fluctuations in the number of molecules of one species are instantaneously uncorrelated to those of the others and obey Poisson statistics. Under these assumptions, the ACF derived in this paper is characterized only by the diffusive timescale of the fluorescent species and its total weight is the inverse of the mean number of observed fluorescent molecules. The theory is then scrutinized in view of previous experimental results which, for a similar system, gave a different total weight and correct estimates of other diffusive timescales. The total weight mismatch is corrected by assuming that the variance of the number of fluorescent molecules depends on the variance of the particle numbers of the other species, as in the variance decomposition formula. Including the finite acquisition time in its computation, it is shown that the ACF depends on various timescales of the system and that its total weight coincides with the one obtained with the variance decomposition formula. This calculation implies that diffusion coefficients of nonobservable species can be estimated with FCS experiments performed in reaction-diffusion systems. Ways to proceed in future experiments are also discussed.
