Methods To Characterize ABC Transporter Interactions
There are a number of assay types that allow the detection of ABC transporter interactions with endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. The complexity of assay range from relatively simple membrane assays like vesicular transport assay, ATPase assay to more complex cell based assays up to intricate in vivo detection methodologies.

“It would be some advantage to live a primitive and frontier life, though in the midst of an outward civilization, if only to learn what are the gross necessaries of life and what methods have been taken to obtain them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem—in my opinion—to characterize our age.”
—Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
“The exercise of power is determined by thousands of interactions between the world of the powerful and that of the powerless, all the more so because these worlds are never divided by a sharp line: everyone has a small part of himself in both.”
