Effects of pluronic F68 micellization on the viability of neuronal cells in culture [PDF]

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2013
ABSTRACTTriblock copolymers with surface‐active properties, referred to as Pluronic, have shown potential medical applications such as drug delivery to selective targets in the human body. In particular, the transport of anti‐inflammatory substances to the brain is required for illness treatment, thus the study of delivery agents that cross the blood ...

Influence of Pluronic F68 on Size Stability and Acoustic Behavior of Monodisperse Phospholipid-Coated Microbubbles Produced at Room Temperature. [PDF]

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces
Ultrasound contrast agents, comprised of phospholipid-coated microbubbles, can be produced as monodisperse populations using a microfluidic flow-focusing device. However, microbubble coalescence remains a significant challenge.

Structural Basis of Shiga Toxin Neutralization by Human Antibodies Targeting Canonical Receptor‐Binding and Non‐Canonical Assembly Sites

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cryo‐electron microscopy structures reveal two distinct neutralization mechanisms of fully human monoclonal antibodies targeting the Shiga toxin 1a B subunit. RDS059 occludes the Gb3 receptor‐binding site, whereas RDS045 engages a lateral quaternary epitope to disrupt holotoxin assembly.

Flow cytometric phytoplankton concentration and optical properties across instruments and laboratories

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Flow cytometry measures the optical properties of individual cells and has become essential for enumerating and characterizing marine phytoplankton. Yet systematic comparison of measurements across instruments remains limited, hampering data comparison across laboratories and long‐term time series.
