Experimental optical trapping of microparticles with an Airy beams array using a Holographic Optical Tweezer [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In this work, we present the experimental optical trap of microparticles with an Airy beams array using a holographic optical tweezers. The Airy beams array are attractive for optical manipulation of particles owing to their non--diffracting and autofocusing properties.

Optomechanical non-contact measurement of microparticle compressibility in liquids [PDF]
, 2017 High-throughput label-free measurements of the optical and mechanical properties of single microparticles play an important role in biological research, drug development, and related large population assays. Mechanical detection techniques that rely on the density contrast of a particle with respect to its environment are blind to neutrally bouyant ...

Microparticles as Potential Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Disease
Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2015 Primary prevention of cardiovascular disease is a choice of great relevance because of its impact on health. Some biomarkers, such as microparticles derived from different cell populations, have been considered useful in the assessment of cardiovascular ...

Micro and nanoparticles of native and modified cassava starches as carriers of the antimicrobial potassium sorbat [PDF]
, 2016 Cross-linked and/or acetylated cassava starches were synthesized and characterized. The acetylation increased the water retention capacity and the solubility in water while the higher level of cross-linking produced the opposite effect on starch. Native (

Inhaled bacteriophage-loaded polymeric microparticles ameliorate acute lung infections
Nature Biomedical Engineering, 2018 Lung infections associated with pneumonia, or cystic fibrosis caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa or other bacteria, result in significant morbidity and mortality, in part owing to the development of multidrug resistance, also against last-resort ...

Microparticle assembly pathways on lipid membranes [PDF]
, 2016 Understanding interactions between microparticles and lipid membranes is of increasing importance, especially for unraveling the influence of microplastics on our health and environment. Here, we study how a short-ranged adhesive force between microparticles and model lipid membranes causes membrane-mediated particle assembly. Using confocal microscopy,
