Water Structure at the Hydrophobic Droplet Surface Revealed by Vibrational Sum Frequency Scattering using Isotopic Dilution

, 2022
Water structure at the hydrophobic/water interface is key towards understanding hydrophobicity at the molecular level. Herein, we characterize the hydrogen bonding network of interfacial water next to sub-micron sized hydrophobic droplets dispersed in ...

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Modeling Droplet Breakage in Continuous Emulsification Using Static Mixers in the Framework of the Entire Spectrum of Turbulent Energy

, 2021
Droplet breakage during continuous emulsification in static mixers is investigated in this work. It is clearly shown that for viscous continuous phases, droplet breakage occurs mostly in the dissipation range of isotropic turbulence.

The effect of droplet size on syntrophic dynamics in droplet-enabled microbial co-cultivation.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Co-cultivation in microfluidic droplets has emerged as a versatile tool for the study of natural and synthetic microbial communities. In particular, the identification and characterization of syntrophic interactions in these communities is attracting ...

Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) in a Patient With Compound Heterozygous OPA1 Variants: Case Report and Literature Review

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

Remotely Piloted Aircraft Spraying in Coffee Cultivation: Effects of Two Spraying Systems on Drop Deposition

AgriEngineering
The use of Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) for spraying coffee crops has expanded due to their practicality and cost reduction. This study aimed to evaluate spray rate effects on coffee crops using two RPA (T10 and T20).

Adiabatic Evolution of Cloud Droplet Spectral Width: A New Look at an Old Problem

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Spectral width of the cloud droplet spectrum is important for radiative properties and drizzle/rain development in warm ice‐free clouds. We use an adiabatic rising parcel model to study activation and diffusional growth of cloud droplets, focusing on the
