Abstract
The analysis of time-resolved fluorescence of monopyrenyl phospholipid monomer and excimer emission is reviewed using a model based on the diffusion equation for bimolecular reactions in two-dimensional planar membrane bilayers. This aspect is illustrated by the analysis of a real experiment. The method can also be extended to short-range diffusion, which can be measured for dipyrenyl phospholipids in membrane bilayers. The latter aspect is illustrated by the analysis of a simulated experiment to show the experimental requirements to recover the desired parameters.
