A gated, pulsed laser spectrofluorometer is provided analyzing subpicogram amounts of fluorescent substance in sample volumes of less than 10 .mu.l. This is accomplished by repetitively exciting the fluorescent sample with a subnanosecond, intensive excitation radiation pulse and by gating a fluorescence radiation detector output signal so that detection starts after the excitation radiation pulse has decayed to a negligible intensity and ends when the fluorescence radiation detector output signal caused by the fluorescence emission from the sample has decayed to a level comparable to the electrical noise level of the electronic measuring apparatus connected to said fluorescence radiation detector.
