Capillary pinching in a pinched microchannel [PDF]

, 2007
We report a study of the capillary pinching of a gas bubble by a wetting liquid inside a pinched channel. The capillary pinching induces very reproducible bubbling, at a very well-defined frequency.

Drip Infusion Cholangiography [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society of Medicine, 1968
The author has investigated 25 patients with drip infusion cholangiography using 250 ml. of 30% dextrose and 60 ml. of Biligrafin Forte administered intravenously over the course of one hour. The results are compared with 25 patients investigated by conventional intravenous cholangiography with 20 ml. of the same contrast medium. The author concludes

Unusual Swelling Behavior of Hydrogels Modified with Spiropyran as Appendage or Crosslinker

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Not so innocent after all—spiropyran crosslinkers in methylenebisacrylamide‐crosslinked poly(acrylamide‐co‐acrylic acid) hydrogels increase crosslinking density, but also, counterintuitively, increase swelling. Charge complexation, cooperative chemo‐mechanical effects, and aggregation may explain these observations.
