Single-cell measurements of ion concentrations within the intracellular parasite

Abstract

Rapid progress has been made in the study of intracellular ion activities of eukaryotic cells through the recent combination of high-resolution microscopy with fluorimetric ion-specific probes. This technique allows a specific ion concentration within a single living cell to be monitored on-line with high temporal and spatial resolution. In this report, Stefan Wünsch, Paul Horrocks, Michael Gekle and Michael Lanzer evaluate the application of single-cell fluorimetry to the study of transport processes in Plasmodium falciparum.
