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.

Famous quotes containing the words methods, characterize and/or interactions:
“There are souls that are incurable and lost to the rest of society. Deprive them of one means of folly, they will invent ten thousand others. They will create subtler, wilder methods, methods that are absolutely DESPERATE. Nature herself is fundamentally antisocial, it is only by a usurpation of powers that the organized body of society opposes the natural inclination of humanity.”
—Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
“Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem—in my opinion—to characterize our age.”
—Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
“Whereas children can learn from their interactions with their parents how to get along in one sort of social hierarchy—that of the family—it is from their interactions with peers that they can best learn how to survive among equals in a wide range of social situations.”
—Zick Rubin (20th century)
