Oil monitoring with an optically stimulated contact potential difference sensor
, 2004 This thesis utilized the concept of an optically stimulated Contact Potential Difference (osCPD) sensor to monitor oil properties. The osCPD technique is a variant of the contact potential difference (CPD) method used to obtain surface properties of ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The medical burdens of sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) are chronic and cumulative, even in children. Yet the effects expand beyond medications and healthcare visits due to their impacts on school attendance, academic performance, and peer engagement.

Changes of Contact Potential Difference Induced by Frictional Damage in Ultrahigh Vacuum
, 1999 The work function is one of the most fundamental properties of a metal surface. To clarify frictional electrification phenomena, the effects of frictional damage on the contact potential difference (CPD), which is defined by the difference between the ...

ELECTROSTATIC PROCESSES IN POWER CABLES
Electrical engineering & Electromechanics, 2013 Observation of contact electrification of power cable samples is made. It is revealed that the contact potential difference and the capacity formed under separation of free charges on the surfaces of the contacting materials depend on cable design ...

Electroceutical fabric lowers zeta potential and eradicates coronavirus infectivity upon contact
Scientific Reports, 2021 Coronavirus with intact infectivity attached to PPE surfaces pose significant threat to the spread of COVID-19. We tested the hypothesis that an electroceutical fabric, generating weak potential difference of 0.5 V, disrupts the infectivity of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
