All values are a mean of four or more measurements. From left to right: Column 1: Fluorophore analyzed. Column 2: Temperature of observations. Column 3: Hydrodynamic radius. Column 4: Ratio of fluorescence of pipette solution to myoplasm in close proximity after >20 min (Fmyo/pip). Values for BSA and GFP were 0.07 and 0.15, respectively, indicating exclusion from myoplasm. Column 5: Estimated fractions of fluorophores bound by cytoplasm, assuming the free cytoplasmic space to be one-third of total myocyte volume (Lu et al., 2016). . Column 6: Estimated diffusion coefficients for total fluorophores. with λmyo = 0.012 cm. Column 7: Diffusion coefficients for unbound fluorophore, estimated as . Column 8: Estimated diffusion coefficients for given compounds in free water. Column 9: Estimated fold reduction of diffusion coefficients of unbound compounds in murine myocyte cytoplasm versus water (Dx-H2O/Dx-free).
