Charge Density and Hydrophobicity-Dominated Regimes in the Phase Behavior of Complex Coacervates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The role of hydrophobicity, and particularly nonionic hydrophobic comonomers, on the phase behavior of polyelectrolyte complex coacervates is not well-understood.

Dissecting hydrophobicity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
The perceived phobia (fear) of some apolar substances for aqueous (hydro) environments does not imply lack of attraction to water. Rather, it originates from the strength of this attraction, which, similar to that between the constituents of apolar substances, is smaller than the force between water molecules.

When is a hydrophobic gate not a hydrophobic gate?

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 2022
The flux of ions through a channel is most commonly regulated by changes that result in steric occlusion of its pore. However, ion permeation can also be prevented by formation of a desolvation barrier created by hydrophobic residues that line the pore.

Glauconite-Based Sorbents for Skimming Oil and Oil Products

open access: yesКонденсированные среды и межфазные границы, 2020
Natural glauconite-based sorbents were obtained for skimming oil and oil products from different surfaces. Glauconite is an aluminosilicate mineral and is widely used for cleaning various pollutants from water and soil.

Comparative analysis of hydrophobicity and dentin adhesion ability in Candida albicans strains [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Oral Science
Adhesion to dentin is a first step for a successful microbial root canal colonization. Cell hydrophobicity seems to have some influence in the Candida species adhesion to surfaces. Objective to measure cell surface hydrophobicity and to investigate the

Fabrication of hierarchical micro/nano structure surface on copper by EDM and its hydrophobicity

open access: yesCailiao gongcheng, 2020
The hierarchical micro-nano structure surface on copper was fabricated by electrical discharge machining (EDM). The hydrophobic property was increased due to the hierarchical micro/nano structure (HMNS), which consisted of the micro/nano scale holes ...

Hydrophobicity-Adaptive Nanogels for Programmed Anticancer Drug Delivery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Reconciling the conflicting needs for a prolonged circulation time, enhanced cellular uptake by bulk tumor cells and cancer stem cells (CSCs), and extensive tumor tissue penetration remains a major challenge for current nano drug delivery systems.
