Events of duration shorter than the data acquisition interval can be missed when collecting data, introducing error into the analysis. If a fluorophore blinks faster than the data acquisition rate, the resulting brief dip or rise in fluorescence intensity (denoted with arrows above) will be missed when collecting data. Such missed transitions can be accounted for in inferring photophysical parameters and fluorophore counts.21
