New technologies in exocytosis and ion movement.
Evolving new technologies for the study of exocytosis have been successfully exploited for the analysis of secretory events in the well-characterized chromaffin cell system. These technologies include amperometry, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), confocal and total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF), and organelle-targeted aequorins.
