- The steady state fluorescence behavior of pyranine has been monitored in aqueous solutions of sucrose, glucose, fructose, and lactose. In each case it is possible to use the ratio of peak intensities at 440 and 511 nm (the PIR) as an indicator of the degree of supersaturation of the sugar solutions. We observed both bulk water and water of solvation in all solutions examined, regardless of degree of sapersaturation. In each case the amounts of bulk water and water of solvation per molecule of sugar appear to be nearly equal at saturation. We did not observe any evidence of solvent exclusive clusters in any of the systems we studied
