Visualizing membrane microdomains by Laurdan 2-photon microscopy.

Lateral segregation of cell membrane components gives rise to microdomains with a different structure within the membrane. Most prominently, lipid rafts are defined as domains in liquid ordered phase whereas surrounding membranes are more fluid. Here we review a 2-photon fluorescence microscopy appr...
