Probe Diffusion in Pva Solutions and Gels Studied by Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy
Introduction. It has been shown in previous studies, e.g., by NMR, fluorescence photobleaching, and dynamic light scattering (DLS), that the diffusion of non-interacting probe particles in polymer solutions and gels primarily depends on the polymer concentration and the size of the probe. In interpreting these results, it is widely assumed that polymer gels behave like semi-dilute polymer solut...
متن کاملProbe diffusion in aqueous poly(vinyl alcohol) solutions studied by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
We report fluorescence correlation spectroscopy measurements of the translational diffusion coefficient of various probe particles in dilute and semidilute aqueous poly(vinyl alcohol) solutions. The range of sizes of the particles (fluorescent molecules, proteins, and polymers) was chosen to explore various length scales of the polymer solutions as defined by the polymer-polymer correlation len...
متن کاملDiffusion in Model Networks as Studied by NMR and Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy
We have studied the diffusion of small solvent molecules (octane) and larger hydrophobic dye probes in octane-swollen poly(dimethyl siloxane) linear-chain solutions and end-linked model networks, using pulsed-gradient nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), respectively, focusing on diffusion in the bulk polymer up to the equilibrium degree of swelling ...
متن کاملAnalysis of diffusion in egg white by Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy
Even if the intracellular environment is mainly composed by water, there are a lot of differences between diffusion inside the cell and diffusion in pure water. By measuring diffusion coefficients in the intracellular environment and comparing them with the corresponding values obtained in pure water, it’s possible to obtain informations on the structuring of the cell interior. In this bachelor...
متن کاملPleckstrin homology domain diffusion in Dictyostelium cytoplasm studied using fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
The translocation of pleckstrin homology (PH) domain-containing proteins from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane plays an important role in the chemotaxis mechanism of Dictyostelium cells. The diffusion of three PH domain-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusions (PH2-GFP, PH10-GFP, and PH-CRAC (cytosolic regulator of adenylyl cyclase)-GFP) in the cytoplasm of vegetative and chemotaxing Dictyos...
