Zeta Potential of Food Matrices
Food Engineering Reviews, 2018Food matrices contain electrically charged particles, which interact with each other and with the media and are produced via several interface processes and mechanisms. The understanding of electric charge interactions is complex and essential towards the development of food systems since they can determine the type of particle-particle and particle ...

Control of matric water potential by temperature differential
Journal of Microbiological Methods, 1987A method for controlling relative humidity based on temperature differentials, rather than on salt solutions, is described. This method has the following advantages: (1) it does not exhibit the anomalous CO2 solution effects that we have found to occur with salt solutions; (2) humidity is continuously adjustable without sample removal; (3 ...

The Meaning of Matric Potential
Journal of Experimental Botany, 1980The commonly used equation, y — P — n + z, which describes the partitioning of plant water potential, y, into components of hydrostatic pressure, P, osmotic pressure, n, and matric potential, r, is misleading. The term r, which is supposed to show the influence of a solid phase on y, is zero if a consistent definition of pressure is used in the ...

Inverse M-Matrices and Potentials
2014In this chapter we investigate the relationship between M-matrices, their inverses and potentials of finite Markov chains. We supply the basic concepts from potential theory and put them in a linear algebra perspective. We highlight the concepts of potential matrices, equilibrium potentials and maximum and domination principles. The primary results are

The Distance of Potentially Stable Sign Patterns to the Unstable Matrices
SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications, 2002A sign pattern is a matrix \(\{{\mathcal A}=[\alpha_{ij}]\}\) with \(\alpha_{ij}\in \{+,0,-\}\); a real (numerical) matrix belongs to this sign pattern (\(A \in \{{\mathcal A}\}\)) if \(\text{sign}(a_{ij})=\alpha_{ij}\). A matrix is stable if all its eigenvalues have negative real parts.

The Components of Leaf Water Potential I. Osmotic and Matric Potentials
Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1967Osmotic potential ('IT) resulting from solutes should be distinguished from matric potential (T) resulting from adsorption by the tissue matrix. The usual methods of measuring so·called "osmotic potential" actually give not only 'IT but also part or all of T.

Changes in the Matric Potential of Soil Water With Time and Temperature
Soil Science, 2010The temperature dependence of the matric potential of soil water was investigated as part of a study of the effects of climate change on soil physical properties. Undisturbed samples of topsoils were collected in cylinders. The pore water suction near the center of each cylinder was measured using two miniature tensiometers.

The potential of anisotropic matrices as substrate for heart valve engineering
Biomaterials, 2014Cells environment is increasingly recognized as an important function regulator through cell-matrix interactions. Extracellular matrix (ECM) anisotropy being a key component of heart valves properties, we have devised a method to create highly porous anisotropic nanofibrillar scaffolds and studied their suitability as cell-support and interactions with
