Materials & Design, 2022 The macroscale mechanical properties of dissimilar joints are generally influenced by the fracture behavior of joint interface. However, little is known about the dominant factor for the joint properties related with both macroscale fracture behavior and

Low-concentration tracer tests to measure air-water interfacial area in porous media
Chemosphere, 2020 The aqueous-based interfacial tracer method employing miscible-displacement tests is one method available for measuring air-water interfacial areas. One potential limitation to the method is the impact of tracer-induced drainage on the system. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a low-concentration tracer test method for ...

Interfacial assignment of branched-alkyl benzene sulfonates: A molecular simulation
AIP Advances, 2015 A molecular dynamics simulation was conducted to analyze orientations of sodium branched-alkyl benzene sulfonates molecules at nonane/water interface, which is helpful to design optimal surfactant structures to achieve ultralow interfacial tension (IFT).

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

HYDRATION FEATURES OF COMPOSITE SYSTEMS BASED ON HIGH-DISPERSED SILICA AND SUCROSE IN DIFFERENT MEDIA [PDF]
Biotechnologia Acta, 2017 The state of water in the hydrated sucrose powder, in its melt, and composite systems containing 3 parts of silica (A-300 or AM1) and 1 part of sucrose in air, low-polar organic solvent-deuterochloroform and CDCl3 medium with addition of strong acids has
