Chemical Science, vol. 8, n.o 5, 2017, pp. 3523-28. DOI.org (Crossref), https://doi.org/10.1039/C6SC05369F.2041-65202041-653910.1039/c6sc05369fhttps://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/114903The plasma membranes of cells within the eye lens play an important role in metabolite transport within the avascular tissue of the lens, maintaining its transparency over the entire lifespan of an individual. Here we use viscosity-sensitive ‘molecular rotors’ to map the microscopic viscosity within these unusual cell membranes, establishing that they are characterised by an unprecedentedly high degree of lipid organisation.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/journal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1039/c6sc05369fopen access615.31615:54Química farmaceútica23 Química
