Dynamics and functions of lipid droplets

open access: yesNature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2018
Lipid droplets are storage organelles at the centre of lipid and energy homeostasis. They have a unique architecture consisting of a hydrophobic core of neutral lipids, which is enclosed by a phospholipid monolayer that is decorated by a specific set of ...

Direct Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Flows Laden with Droplets or Bubbles

open access: yesAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2019
This review focuses on direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent flows laden with droplets or bubbles. DNS of these flows are more challenging than those of flows laden with solid particles due to the surface deformation in the former.

Self-Propulsion of Chemically Active Droplets [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2022
Microscopic active droplets are able to swim autonomously in viscous flows. This puzzling feature stems from solute exchanges with the surrounding fluid via surface reactions or their spontaneous solubilization and from the interfacial flows resulting ...

Live Attenuated and Sub-Unit Vaccines Exploitation Against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 [SARS-COV2] [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Arts, 2023
Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 [SARS-COV2] is a serious infection nowadays. Infection is typically limited to the mucosal cells of the respiratory tract. At least 50% of infections are asymptomatic.

Correlation of radius of cathode spot of vacuum arc of metals on the size of generated droplets

open access: yesВесці Нацыянальнай акадэміі навук Беларусі: Серыя фізіка-тэхнічных навук, 2021
The simple relation to estimate the cathode spot radius of a vacuum arc of pure metals is obtained. On its basis, is established between the cathode spot radius and the size of droplets generated by the cathode spot a correlation.

Effects of Extraoral Suction on Droplets and Aerosols for Infection Control Practices

open access: yesDentistry Journal, 2021
Dental professionals are at increased risk of being infected with airborne pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 because they are often exposed to droplets/aerosols production during dental treatment.

Impact of Chemical Properties of Human Respiratory Droplets and Aerosol Particles on Airborne Viruses’ Viability and Indoor Transmission

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The airborne transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been identified as a potential pandemic challenge, especially in poorly ventilated indoor environments, such as certain hospitals, schools, public buildings ...

Pressure dynamics of an internal shock wave emission inside a water droplet and potential cavitation

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2023
Shock reflected by a spherical interface is involved in shock-droplet interaction. Here, we investigate the pressure dynamics of an internal spherical shock wave and the potential cavitation inside a spherical water droplet.

The airborne lifetime of small speech droplets and their potential importance in SARS-CoV-2 transmission

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Speech droplets generated by asymptomatic carriers of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are increasingly considered to be a likely mode of disease transmission. Highly sensitive laser light scattering observations have revealed
