| Method |
The simplest and most convenient method to
measure organellar pH is through the targeted
delivery of pH-sensitive spectroscopic probes. |
| Comments |
"A pH gradient in the opposite
direction has been observed in the endocytic pathway towards the lysosomes. While early endosomes are thought
to have a pH of around 6.3, lysosomes are much more acidic with a pH of approximately 5.5." (quote from PMID 22768925) |
