Abstract
Measurement of the total volume available todissolve a solute in biological systems is impor-tant for basic and applied studies in cryobiology,physiology, pharmacology, and other biomedicalfields. Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) permits ac-curate measurements of intracellular water vol-ume and has been applied to vesicles (Vistnes andPuskin, ’81), mammalian sperm (Hammerstedt etal., ’78; Kleinhans et al., ’92), and red blood cells(Moronne et al., ’90; Kleinhans at al., ’92). Thegoal of this appendix is to show in greater detailthe assumptions and modifications used in calcu-lating the intracellular water volume of thezebrafish embryo using ESR
