Electric ecology meets pollination biology: A synthesis of current knowledge and future directions for artificial pollination

Environment Conservation Journal
The electrical fields prevalent in the environment are significant enough to influence the natural pollination process. This study presents a comprehensive review of the concept of electric ecology in pollination, encompassing atmospheric electric ...

ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE GENERATED FROM SLIDING ON POLYETHYLENE TURF [PDF]

Journal of the Egyptian Society of Tribology, 2020
The extensive use of PE fibers in artificial turf necessitates to study their electrification when they rub rubber surface. Electrostatic charge (ESC) generated from the contact and separation as well as sliding of rubber against PE turf was discussed in

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Optically Defined Reconfigurable THz Metasurfaces using Graphene on Iron‐Doped Lithium Niobate

Advanced Photonics Research, 2022
Graphene plasmonic devices have been demonstrated to show great potential for reconfigurable metasurfaces due to the tuneable electronic charge transport properties of graphene in response to electrostatic gating.

Development of a Ni–Al reactive force field for Ni-based superalloy: revealing electrostatic effects on mechanical deformation

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
The physics-informed expression of interatomic potentials is critical to driving accurate molecular dynamics (MD) simulations while most alloy potentials neglect the electrostatic effects explicitly despite the existence of local charge non-neutrality in

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

The electrostatic potential of dynamic charge densities [PDF]

Journal of Applied Crystallography, 2017
A procedure to derive the electrostatic potential (ESP) for dynamic charge densities obtained from structure models or maximum-entropy densities is introduced. The ESP essentially is obtained by inverse Fourier transform of the dynamic structure factors of the total charge density corresponding to the independent atom model, the multipole model or ...

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

A Charged Active Contour Based on Electrostatics [PDF]

, 2006
We propose a novel active contour model by incorporating particle based electrostatic interactions into the geometric active contour framework. The proposed active contour, embedded in level sets, propagates under the joint influence of a boundary attraction force and a boundary competition force.
