Measuring Membrane Viscosity in the Widening Gyre (Biophysical Journal)
 


The lipid membrane surrounding every living cell is a complex structure that has inspired decades of research into its biological functions and material properties. It might seem that a property of lipid membranes as fundamental as viscosity would be well characterized and predictable. However, membrane viscosity has proven surprisingly challenging to measure. Approximate values and even relative viscosities in ordered and disordered phases have been published, but we still lack systematic measurements showing how the viscosities of complex lipid mixtures vary with their composition.
