## Abstract Under controlled conditions, fluorescent cyanine dyes can be used to mesure membrane potentials of cell suspensions. Similar changes in membrane potential can be followed both with fluorescent dyes and electrophysiological probes in response to changes in the ion composition of the medi

## Abstract The use of fluorescent cyanine dyes to estimate membrane potential in cell suspensions has been considered. Several problems related to the application of the dyes have been reviewed. These problems include: (1) alteration of the membrane potential (E~m~) and factors involved in establi
The membrane potential of cultured rat sciatic nerve Schwann cells was determined with conventional microelectrode and voltage-sensitive fluorescent dye, Di-S-C,(5), optical techniques. The value for membrane potential obtained with microelectrodes was -42.1 \* 4.7 mV (n = 8). Using optically determ
## Abstract We have applied a nonβcontact method for studying the temperature changes produced by radiofrequency (RF) radiation specifically to small biological samples. A temperatureβdependent fluorescent dye, Rhodamine B, as imaged by laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) was used to do this.
