Basic Surface Properties of Mononuclear Cells from Didelphis marsupialis [PDF]
The electrostatic surface charge and surface tension of mononuclear cells/monocytes obtained from young and adult marsupials (Didelphis marsupialis) were investigated by using cationized ferritin and colloidal iron hydroxyde, whole cell electrophoresis ...

Translocating the blood-brain barrier using electrostatics
Mammalian cell membranes regulate homeostasis, protein activity and cell signaling. The charge at the membrane surface has been correlated with these key events.Although mammalian cells are known to be slightly anionic, quantitative information on the ...

Role of the cell-wall structure in the retention of bacteria by microfiltration membranes [PDF]
This experimental study investigates the retention of bacteria by porous membranes. The transfer of bacteria larger than the nominal pore size of microfiltration track-etched membranes has been studied for several kinds of bacterial strains.
