Fatty-acid uptake in prostate cancer cells using dynamic microfluidic raman technology [PDF]
, 2020 It is known that intake of dietary fatty acid (FA) is strongly correlated with prostate cancer progression but is highly dependent on the type of FAs. High levels of palmitic acid (PA) or arachidonic acid (AA) can stimulate the progression of cancer.

Expandable polystyrene beads: Preexpansion processing
Advances in Polymer Technology, 1984 AbstractBecause the expansion of expandable polystyrene beads (EPS) results in a reduction in bulk density of more than one‐thirtieth, the beads require a pre‐expansion step prior to the final molding operation. Hence, the pre‐expansion process has become an important unit operation for foamed bead molders.

Shear behavior of sand-expanded polystyrene beads lightweight fills [PDF]
Journal of Central South University of Technology, 2008 Through direct shear and triaxial compression tests, effects of expanded polystyrene (EPS) mass ratios in sand-EPS mixtures and stress status on materials’ shear behavior were investigated. Hyperbolic curves were used to fit relationship between shear stress and shear displacement.
