Reihe: Current Topics in Membranes

New Methods and Sensors for Membrane and Cell Volume Research, Volume 88 provides an overview of novel experimental approaches to study both the cell membrane and the under-membrane space - the cytosol, which have lately began drawing renewed attention. The book's overall emphasis is on fluorescent and FRET-based sensors, however, other optical (such as variants of transmission microscopy) and non-optical methods (neutron scattering and mass spectrometry) also have dedicated chapters. This volume provides a rare review of experimental approaches to study intracellular phase transitions, as well as anion channels, membrane tension and dynamics, and other topics of intense current interest. - Describes novel FRET-based membrane sensors - Reviews selected non-optical approaches to membrane structure and dynamics - Describes traditional and modern aspects of cell volume research, such as phase transitions and macromolecular crowding
