Investigations of Monolayers by Fluorescence Microscopy

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The technique of fluorescence microscopy enables imaging of coexisting domains in Langmuir monolayers which have been doped with a small amount of a fluorescent probe. It is also possible to image surface aggregates formed by labeled proteins interacting with phospholipid monolayers. The method has provided information concerning phase behavior and structure of monolayers and proven useful in the study of monolayers as model systems of membrane processes.
