Answer: prevent excitation light from reaching the detector

Step-by-step explanation:

A fluorometer refers to the device that's used in the measurement of parameters that are of visible spectrum fluorescence. They also prevent excitation light from reaching the detector.

These parameters are used in the identification of the amount and presence of molecules in a medium.
