TABLE 1.
Average characteristics of the small membrane fluctuations observed in 15 different macrophages using DM
Decay time τ (s) | Correlation length ξ (μm) | RMS curvature κ (μm−1) |
---|---|---|
7 ± 2 | 0.23 ± 0.04 | 0.5 ± 0.2 |
The values presented represent the result from the analysis of the relaxation of both temporal and spatial autocorrelation functions for the contrast generated by the small fluctuations.
