Scanning inverse fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
Scanning Inverse Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (siFCS) is introduced to determine the absolute size of nanodomains on surfaces. We describe here equations for obtaining the domain size from cross- and auto-correlation functions, measurement simulations which enabled testing of these equations, and measurements on model surfaces mimicking membranes containing nanodomains. Using a confoca...
متن کاملAnalysis of Ligand-Receptor Interaction on the Surface of Living Cells by Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy
Ligand-receptor interaction on the cell surface has traditionally been analyzed by using radioisotope-labeled ligands. The reaction is carried out at low temperatures such as 4C or on ice in order to prevent endocytosis of the ligandreceptor complex, followed by extensive washing to remove unbound ligands from cells. To overcome these drawbacks, in the present study we have employed fluorescenc...
متن کاملPosition-sensitive scanning fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) uses a stationary laser beam to illuminate a small sample volume and analyze the temporal behavior of the fluorescence fluctuations within the stationary observation volume. In contrast, scanning FCS (SFCS) collects the fluorescence signal from a moving observation volume by scanning the laser beam. The fluctuations now contain both temporal and spati...
متن کاملMeasuring diffusion with polarization-modulation dual-focus fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
We present a new technique, polarization-modulation dual-focus fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (pmFCS), based on the recently intro-duced dual-focus fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (2fFCS) to measure the absolute value of diffusion coefficients of fluorescent molecules at pico- to nanomolar concentrations. Analogous to 2fFCS, the new technique is robust against optical saturation in...
متن کاملMicrorheology with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy.
We show that fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) using a commercial spectrometer can be applied to passive microrheological (MR) experiments. The method probes the local rheological properties of materials on length scales of the focus dimension of the confocal microscope. For a feasibility study, we performed measurements on a high molecular weight poly(ethylene oxide)-water solution t...
