Owing to their tunable properties, controllable degradation, and ability to protect labile
drugs, hydrogels are increasingly investigated as local drug delivery systems. However, a …

Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is a single molecule sensitive tool for the
quantitative measurement of biomolecular dynamics and interactions. Improvements in …

The success of fluorescence experiments requires attention to experimental details and an
understanding of the instrumentation. There are also many potential artifacts that can distort …

Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) is an experimental technique using statistical

The ability to detect low concentrations of analytes and in particular low‐abundance
biomarkers is of fundamental importance, eg, for early‐stage disease diagnosis. The …

We report the application of confocal imaging and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy
(FCS) to characterize chemically well-defined lipid bilayer models for biomembranes. Giant …

The mathematical concept of fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) 1 (1) emerged
from quasi-elastic light scattering (QELS) spectroscopy (2) in the early 1970s. Compared to …

The plasma membrane is of central importance for defining the closed volume of cells in
contradistinction to the extracellular environment. The plasma membrane not only serves as …

Investigation of lipid lateral mobility in biological membranes and their artificial models
provides information on membrane dynamics and structure; methods based on optical …

Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) can provide a wealth of information about
biological and chemical systems on a broad range of time scales (< 1μs to> 1s). Numerical …
