Creating in vitro models of molecular crowding environments in living cells has much attention in the understanding of structures and functions of biomolecules. So far, we have been developing a new method for the spatiotemporal control of biomolecular condensation with a focused laser beam. In this study, we investigated the optimal conditions for biomolecule condensation with a focused laser beam and found that surfactant is one of the key factors.
