Abstract

Hemicyanine dyes are effective voltage sensitive probes in
biomembranes (Loew et a11979; EphardtandFromherz 1989).
The probing of rapid changes of electrical potential in biological
membrane has been studied in the light of spectroscopic
behaviour of these dyes (Ephardt and Fromherz 1993). The
physical behaviour of surfactant micelle can be viewed upon
as a pseudo model for biomembranes to study the interactions
of biological systems with various additives, for instance
anesthesiatics.
