This 3D animation clip shows the effects of detergent on a fibroblast in culture (in vitro) during preparation for fluorescent labeling (the full animation is linked below the video). The cell is first fixed with paraformaldehyde, and then the membrane is dissolved with detergent, exposing the inner structures to labels.
