[Membrane microviscosity in cell/virus systems].
The use of fluorescent probes for the appraisal of microviscosity properties of cell membranes, both inside the lipid double layer and/or near the double layer surface, are today an usual tool in cell biology. In the present paper an attempt was made to establish if there are significant changes in the mechanical properties of the host cell membranes.
