A Computational Model for Tail Undulation and Fluid Transport in the Giant Larvacean
Flexible propulsors are ubiquitous in aquatic and flying organisms and are of great interest for bioinspired engineering. However, many animal models, especially those found in the deep sea, remain inaccessible to direct observation in the laboratory. We

The Process of Thermodialysis and Some of its Possible Consequences in Biology
The flow of thermal energy in liquids is associated with the development of ponderomotive forces. In non-isothermal ionic or molecular solutions a drift of the disperse phase is thus produced (thermal diffusion).

Uptake and transport of antibiotic kasugamycin in castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) seedlings
Kasugamycin (KSM), an aminoglycoside antibiotic, has been widely used for the management of plant diseases, especially for the control of rice blast in Asia. However, its uptake mechanism and transport in plants are still obscure.

Biological and Medical Aspects of Active Heal Transport of Bile Acids
The active transport of conjugated bile acids by the ileum is responsible for the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids, a physiological process that ensures an ample supply to the intestine of these key biological surfactants, irrespective of the rate of their biosynthesis from cholesterol.

Modelling transport through biological environments that contain obstacles [PDF]
Transport through biological environments that are densely crowded with obstacles is often classified as anomalous, rather than Fickian diffusion. Researchers often describe these transport processes using either a random walk model or a fractional order

Review: Interactions of Active Colloids with Passive Tracers
Collective phenomena existing universally in both biological systems and artificial active matter are increasingly attracting interest. The interactions can be grouped into active-active and active-passive ones, where the reports on the purely active ...

Active Materials: Biological Benchmarks and Transport Limitations
Abstract Recent works in cellular and molecular biophysics suggest that activity can drive dramatic changes to the properties of living materials and their fluctuations. Experimental investigations of active materials pose some challenges.

ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with high‐risk cancer face complex developmental, psychosocial, and ethical challenges that extend beyond disease‐directed treatment. Although international recommendations exist for communication, psychosocial care, pediatric palliative care, survivorship, and shared decision‐making, these have largely evolved within ...
