| Abstract | Summary form only given. Pulsed laser fluorescence microscopy (PLFM) using the voltage sensitive dye ANNINE-6 permits measurements of transmembrane potentials of biological cells with a time resolution of five nanoseconds. Several theories have been proposed to explain the change of the membrane conductivity in response to an external electric field, e.g. pore-models, phase transitions due to electro-compression or local disturbances in the membrane caused by lipid rafts. The measured field-strength-dependence of the transmembrane potential of both mammalian and plant cells exhibits a saturation character which is supposed to occur due to the formation of nano/micropores. For mammalian cells with a typical diameter of 15 mum saturation effects set in at external field strengths in the order of 1 kV/cm. For tobacco-protoplasts (BY-2) with an average size three times the diameter of mammalian cells, the same saturation effect can be observed at about one third of the saturation field strength, observed for mammalian cells. This confirms the general expectations of current membrane charging models. Furthermore, protoplasts exhibit a strong asymmetry of the membrane charging at the hyper- and depolarized hemisphere of the cell, which occurs due to the higher rest potential compared to mammalian cells. The threshold transmembrane voltage for the onset of pore formation has been estimated to an absolute value of +/-200 mV. In addition, time- and field-strength-dependencies of the transmembrane potential's azimuthal distribution have been examined. Time-courses of the transmembrane potential in response to an electric field pulse show a good agreement with theoretical predictions. Results for HEK293, HeLa and 22Rv1 cells as well as for tobacco-protoplasts will be presented and the underlying measurement setup will be described. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
