A finite membrane element formulation for surfactants
, 2019 Surfactants play an important role in various physiological and biomechanical applications. An example is the respiratory system, where pulmonary surfactants facilitate the breathing and reduce the possibility of airway blocking by lowering the surface ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

EOR mechanism of fracture oil displacement agent for ultra-low permeability reservoir
Energy Reports, 2023 Due to the low permeability, small pore throat, and poor pore connectivity of ultra-low permeability reservoirs, fracturing was required to improve the flow environment of oil in the reservoir during its development. The combination of fracturing and oil

Interfacial roughening in non-ideal fluids: Dynamic scaling in the weak- and strong-damping regime
, 2013 Interfacial roughening denotes the nonequilibrium process by which an initially flat interface reaches its equilibrium state, characterized by the presence of thermally excited capillary waves.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Interfacial tension of tri-ethylene glycol-water mixtures in carbon dioxide at elevated pressures
Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2023 The study of interfacial tension (IFT) of fluid/liquid systems is vital to optimize the design and operation of liquid-fluid contactors, and in this case, the design and performance of carbon dioxide (CO2) dehydration by absorption using tri-ethylene ...

Bacteria Cell Hydrophobicity and Interfacial Properties Relationships: A New MEOR Approach
Colloids and Interfaces, 2021 For microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR), different mechanisms have been introduced. In some of these papers, the phenomena and mechanisms related to biosurfactants produced by certain microorganisms were discussed, while others studied the direct ...

Cooperative effects in surfactant adsorption layers at water/alkane interfaces
, 2019 In the present work, the properties of dodecyl dimethyl phosphine oxide (C12DMPO) at the water/decane interface are studied and compared with those obtained earlier at the interface to hexane.

Surfactant effects in the Landau–Levich problem [PDF]
, 2006 In this work we study the classical Landau–Levich problem of dip-coating. While in the clean interface case and in the limit of low capillary numbers it admits an asymptotic solution, its full study has not been conducted.
