DropletWhen microdroplets with quasi‐spherical contact angles coalesce together on a low‐adhesion substrate, the capillary‐inertial expansion of the liquid bridge induces a dramatic out‐of‐plane jumping event due to symmetry breaking. From the onset of merging,

Programmable droplet manipulation enabled by charged‐surface pattern reconfiguration
Droplet, 2023 Programmable droplet manipulation based on external stimulation is in high demand in various modern technologies. Despite notable progress, current manipulation strategies still suffer from a common drawback such as single control means of modulating the

Droplet-Droplet, Droplet-Wall and Microorganism-Wall Interactions [PDF]
, 2017 The first study investigates the outcomes in droplet-droplet collision. Droplet-droplet collisions in a gas occur when droplets move towards each other in flight and come into direct contact. The “outcome” is defined herein to be the state of the liquid matter after the collision process is completed and generally can be classified as an agglomeration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Droplet collision of hypergolic propellants
DropletIn the present mini‐review, droplet impacting on a liquid pool, jet impingement, and binary droplet collision of nonreacting liquids are first summarized in terms of basic phenomena and the corresponding nondimensional parameters.

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Actuating droplets with electrowetting: Force and dynamics
DropletElectrowetting on dielectric (EWOD) allows rapid movement of liquid droplets on a smooth surface, with applications ranging from lab‐on‐chip devices to micro‐actuators. The in‐plane force on a droplet is a key indicator of EWOD performance.

Preparation of nano‐pico droplets using an open fibrous system
Droplet, 2023 Manipulation and dispensing of ultra‐tiny droplets have attracted extensive research attention for their applications. Current approaches for dispensing liquids normally involve the use of micronozzles and microtips, which, however, suffer from ...

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.
