Fluorescent probes have been employed for more than half a century to study the structure
and dynamics of model and biological membranes, using spectroscopic and/or microscopic …

The cytoplasm is a crowded, visco-elastic environment whose physical properties change
according to physiological or developmental states. How the physical properties of the …

The viscosity distribution of micellar interiors from the very center to the outer surface is
dramatically varied, which has been distinguished in theoretical models, yet it remains …

Fluorescent microscopy has enabled the study of intracellular processes and revealed the
most intricate details of the subcellular structure. This has benefitted not only the basic …

Lipid peroxidation is a process which is key in cell signaling and disease, it is exploited in
cancer therapy in the form of photodynamic therapy. The appearance of hydrophilic moieties …

Lipid rafts are specialized microdomains in cell membranes, rich in cholesterol and
sphingolipids, and play an integrative role in several physiological and pathophysiological …

In this study, the complexation of potential chemo-therapeutic antibacterial drug,
ciprofloxacin (CIP) with varying concentrations of surface active compounds (SACs) ie,(N-(2 …

The viscosity of cell membranes is a crucial parameter that affects the diffusion of small
molecules both across and within the lipid membrane and that is related to several diseases …

NADH and NADPH play key roles in the regulation of metabolism. Their endogenous
fluorescence is sensitive to enzyme binding, allowing changes in cellular metabolic state to …

A wide-field microscope with epi-fluorescence and selective plane illumination was
