The application and development of catalytic fluorimetry in recent years were reviewed with 103 references. The new technique and application of catalytic fluorimetric methods, such as the determination of catalyst and activator, multicomponent determination, enzyme catalysis, the effect of micelle in multicomponent determination and enzyme catalysis, the combination with flow-injection or stopped-flow tachniques and laser induced fluorimetry, time resolved fluorimetry, bioreactor control, biosensor, medicine assay, bioanalysis were mainly discussed. Future study was envisioned
