Biophysical phenomena in blood flow system in the process of indirect arterial pressure measurement [PDF]

open access: yesCardiometry, 2012
The idea of indirect arterial pressure measurement with the help of occlusive cuff belongs to Riva-Rocci. However, the phenomenon of noise appearing and disappearing in the blood flow distal of the brachial artery compression during the equality moments of occlusive, systolic and diastolic pressure was called Korotkov sounds.

A Systematic Review of Continuum Modeling of Skeletal Muscles: Current Trends, Limitations, and Recommendations

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2018
Finite elasticity theory has been commonly used to model skeletal muscle. A very large range of heterogeneous constitutive laws has been proposed. In this review, the most widely used continuum models of skeletal muscles were synthetized and discussed ...

Chronobiology Meets Quantum Biology: A New Paradigm Overlooking the Horizon?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Biological processes and physiological functions in living beings are featured by oscillations with a period of about 24 h (circadian) or cycle at the second and third harmonic (ultradian) of the basic frequency, driven by the biological clock.

Role of Cell Surface Hydrophobicity in the Pathogenesis of Medically-Significant Fungi

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) is an important cellular biophysical parameter which affects both cell-cell and cell-surface interactions. In dimorphic fungi, multiple factors including the temperature-induced shift between mold and yeast forms have ...

A Minimal Mechanosensing Model Predicts Keratocyte Evolution on Flexible Substrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A mathematical model is proposed for shape evolution and locomotion of fish epidermal keratocytes on elastic substrates. The model is based on mechanosensing concepts: cells apply contractile forces onto the elastic substrate, while cell shape evolution ...

Biophysical Effects Of Ion Concenteration On The Affinity Between Nanopore, OmpF Lumen and Passing Nucleotide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
OmpF an outer-membrane porin channel of _E. Coli_ posses beta-barrel structure, whose conductivity and gating phenomena are affected by changes in pH, salt concentration and so on. The distribution of amino acids in OmpF induces a non homologous electric
