An integrated multidisciplinary approach to study the effects of copper and osmotic stress in fish [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel UniversitySince many estuarine zones are impacted by copper contamination, there is an on-going effort to develop Biotic Ligand Models (BLMs) predicting copper ...

Negative swelling hydrogel enabled by osmotic pressure induced dehydration [PDF]
Swelling positively in water is a common behavior of hydrogels, which may lead to reduced mechanical performance and stability. Enabling negative swelling represents a promising way to address those issues, but is extremely challenging to realize.

Polyethylene glycol-b-polylactic acid polymersome elongation through osmotic pressure mediated membrane tension and fusion [PDF]
Polyethylene glycol-b-polylactic acid (PEGPLA) polymersomes elongate under osmotic pressure. Hypertonic NaCl solutions statistically increased the zeta potential from negative to neutral.

Colloid osmotic pressure [PDF]
Summary Technical advances have made the bedside measurement of colloid osmotic pressure (COP) a rapid and reproducible test. The principles of measurement are described and the place of COP determinations in the recognition, treatment and prophylaxis of oedematous states is discussed.
