Abstract
Fluorescence-based techniques have been an integral factor in the study of cellular and model membranes. Fluorescence studies carried out on model membranes have provided valuable structural information and have helped reveal mechanistic detail regarding the formation and properties of ordered lipid domains, commonly known as lipid rafts. This chapter focuses on four techniques, based on fluorescence spectroscopy or microscopy, which are commonly used to analyze lipid rafts. The techniques described in this chapter may be used in a variety of ways and in combination with other techniques to provide valuable information regarding lipid order and domain formation, especially in model membranes.
