Structural Configuration of Myelin Figures Using Fluorescence Microscopy
Figure 5
POPC, 1 mol% TR-DHPE, room temperature, hydrate solution of fluorescein/DI water mg/mL Fluorescein. (a) Shows the two-color image; (b) and (c) are the same image with only one-color component (red (lipid) or green (water)). Region a: in (a) shows the area where the plaque of lipid start unpinning from the substrate. So, the myelin figures growing from that area have a hollow shape. Region b: shows one of these hollow tubes. (Circles c and d) refer to the intensity of two areas in the hollow tube which can be compared with the environment of a solid tube (Circle e).
