The anisotropy decay of a fluorescently-labelled macromolecule provides information on the internal and global dynamics of the macromolecule. Weber was a pioneer of fluorescent probes, polarization and polarized phase-modulation methods and revealed the power of combining or comparing these methods to disentangle complex modes of emission depolarization. In this paper we take a similar course and show that when measurements of dynamic depolarization are combined with steady-state anisotropy, complex anisotropy decays can be deduced from measurements at a single modulation frequency. Specifically, a double exponential anisotropy decay can be resolved by combining one of the polarized emission phasors with the steady-state anisotropy. The key is the polarized phasor ellipse plot which provides a convenient visualisation aid and reduces the dimensionality of the minimisation problem from three variables to one variable. We illustrate these concepts with an experimental measurement of the anisotropy decay of a small cytoplasmic fluorescent probe in live cells
