Abstract
Periodically patterned photobleaching followed by spatial Fourier transform analysis of the recovery is shown to enable mapping of molecular diffusivity within spatially heterogeneous media. Both pixel by pixel analysis method and segmented analysis method of Fourier transform fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FT-FRAP) measurements and implemented for quantitatively evaluating diffusion of macromolecules in spatially and chemically complex media. With the development of FT-FRAP, the time-dependent recovery in fluorescence due to diffusion is measured in the spatial Fourier domain, with substantial improvements in the signal-to-noise ratio, the mathematical simplicity, and the compatibility with multi-photon excitation.
