Water exclusion from tunnel cavities in the saturated capillary fringe [PDF]

, 2004
The problem of water flow around a tunnel cavity located in the saturated capillary fringe on top of a very permeable, freely-draining substratum is considered for the critical non-leakage condition when there is uniform vertical downward flow through

Analysing the significance of small conformational changes and low occupancy states in serial crystallographic data

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This protocol paper outlines methods to establish the success of a time‐resolved serial crystallographic experiment, by means of statistical analysis of timepoint data in reciprocal space and models in real space. We show how to amplify the signal from excited states to visualise structural changes in successful experiments.

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

There is a neuronal birthdate gradient within the chick optic tectum.

, 2013
Previous birthdating studies [5] revealed a lateral rostroventral to medial caudodorsal birthdate gradient within the optic tectum. The lateral to medial dimension is not represented here.

Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 regulates cell adhesion and membrane protrusive activity of ovarian cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.

Effects of the magnetic field gradient on the wall power deposition of Hall thrusters

, 2017
The effect of the magnetic field gradient in the discharge channel of a Hall thruster on the ionization of the neutral gas and power deposition on the wall is studied through adopting the 2D-3V particle-in-cell (PIC) and Monte Carlo collisions (MCC ...

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.

Role of the Single Sheet Pile Beneath the Dams on Seepage Parameters Maintenance: Review

Tikrit Journal of Engineering Sciences
Seepage is a significant issue that contributed to the dam’s failure. Different water levels on the U/S and D/S sides produce seepage and uplift pressure.

Under-Agarose Folate Chemotaxis of Dictyostelium discoideum Amoebae in Permissive and Mechanically Inhibited Conditions

BioTechniques, 2001
Under-agarose chemotaxis has been used previously to assess the ability of neutrophils to respond to gradients of chemoattractant. We have adapted this assay to the chemotactic movement of Dictyostelium amoebae in response to folic acid. Troughs are used
