Abstrakt: A quantitative understanding of the forces controlling the assembly and functioning of biomolecular condensates requires the identification of phase boundaries at which condensates form as well as the determination of tie-lines. Here, we describe in detail how Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) provides a versatile approach to estimate phase boundaries of single-component and multicomponent solutions as well as insights about the transport properties of the condensate.
