Abstract
Fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIM) was used to study the behaviour of a BODIPY dye in a giant unilamellar vesicle (GUV) in the presence of an electric field. The modulation of the electric field resulted in distinctive fluorescence lifetime changes in line with environment alterations within the membrane mimic.
