Mass transfer coefficients in cross-flow ultrafiltration [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Usually, in concentration polarization models, the mass transfer coefficient is an unknown parameter. Also, its variation with changing experimental circumstances is in question.

Evaluation of free radical‐induced structural changes and their effect on antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory activities of UV/H2O2‐degraded dextrans

open access: yeseFood
Although ultraviolet (UV)/H2O2 treatment could effectively improve the bioactivities of polysaccharides, the relationship between free radical‐induced structural changes and the bioactivities of products remains unknown. Therefore, this work investigated

Test of the 'glymphatic' hypothesis demonstrates diffusive and aquaporin-4-independent solute transport in rodent brain parenchyma

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Transport of solutes through brain involves diffusion and convection. The importance of convective flow in the subarachnoid and paravascular spaces has long been recognized; a recently proposed ‘glymphatic’ clearance mechanism additionally suggests that ...

Formation of Microcages from a Collagen Mimetic Peptide via Metal-Ligand Interactions

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Here, the hierarchical assembly of a collagen mimetic peptide (CMP) displaying four bipyridine moieties is described. The CMP was capable of forming triple helices followed by self-assembly into disks and domes.

Release of macromolecules from albumin-heparin microspheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Hydrophilic microspheres based on albumin-heparin conjugates have been prepared as a macromolecular delivery system. The soluble albumin-heparin conjugate was synthesized and crosslinked in a water-in-oil emulsion with glutaraldehyde to form microspheres

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Aqueous Angiography: Real-Time and Physiologic Aqueous Humor Outflow Imaging. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
PURPOSE:Trabecular meshwork (TM) bypass surgeries attempt to enhance aqueous humor outflow (AHO) to lower intraocular pressure (IOP). While TM bypass results are promising, inconsistent success is seen.

Structural dynamics of the plant hormone receptor ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The present study unveils the structural and signaling dynamics of ETR1, a key plant ethylene receptor. Using an optimized nanodisc system and solution NMR, we captured full‐length ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment. Our findings reveal dynamic domain uncoupling and Cu(I)‐induced rigidification, providing the first evidence of metal‐triggered ...
