A laser‐induced fluorescence method was used in order to investigate a fluorophore mass transport across the phase boundary between an aqueous and an organic solvent. The findings show that the classical mass transfer theories are not capable in every case to describe the real processes at the phase boundary. Further studies are needed to explain the phenomena at the phase boundary during mass transport.
