Lam - Frap Fret FCS

This document discusses various fluorescence microscopy techniques for studying dynamic and molecular interactions, including FRAP, FCS, and FRET. FRAP involves photobleaching a region of interest and measuring fluorescence recovery over time to determine mobility and diffusion rates. FCS analyzes fluorescence signal fluctuations in a small volume to determine concentration, diffusion, and chemical kinetics. FRET detects energy transfer between fluorophores to study molecular interactions and binding. The document provides details on experimental principles, data analysis methods, and equipment for each technique.
