Flow-dependent fluorescence of CCVJ
Background The molecular rotor 9-(2-Carboxy-2-cyanovinyl)julolidine (CCVJ) is presumed to have a sensitivity towards velocity or shear which is supposed to result in a change in fluorescence quantum yield. Furthermore, a previously reported photoisomeric

Fluid Dynamics of Bacterial Turbulence [PDF]
Self-sustained turbulent structures have been observed in a wide range of living fluids, yet no quantitative theory exists to explain their properties. We report experiments on active turbulence in highly concentrated 3D suspensions of Bacillus subtilis and compare them with a minimal fourth-order vector-field theory for incompressible bacterial ...

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Dynamics of fluid mixtures in nanospaces [PDF]
A multicomponent extension of our recent theory of simple fluids [U. M. B. Marconi and S. Melchionna, J. Chem. Phys. 131, 014105 (2009)] is proposed to describe miscible and immiscible liquid mixtures under inhomogeneous, nonsteady conditions typical of confined fluid flows.

Cyclic nucleotide signaling as a drug target in retinitis pigmentosa
Disruptions in cGMP and cAMP signaling can contribute to retinal dysfunction and photoreceptor loss in retinitis pigmentosa. This perspective examines the mechanisms and evaluates emerging evidence on targeting these pathways as a potential therapeutic strategy to slow or prevent retinal degeneration.

Recent increases in tropical cyclone intensification rates
Tropical cyclones that rapidly intensify are associated with the highest forecast errors and the strongest storms. This study shows that the proportion of tropical cyclones that rapidly intensify recently increased in the Atlantic basin, and that this ...

Characterising Fatigue Behaviour of Nodular Cast Iron Using Micromechanical Simulations [PDF]
Elastic-plastic porous materials experience an increase in the mean void volume fraction when they are subjected to cyclic loading. This behavior is known both from the experiments and simulations in the literature.

Relaxation dynamics of fluid membranes [PDF]
We study the effect of membrane viscosity in the dynamics of liquid membranes-possibly with free or internal boundaries-driven by conservative forces (curvature elasticity and line tension) and dragged by the bulk dissipation of the ambient fluid and the friction occurring when the amphiphilic molecules move relative to each other.
