Numerical simulation of colloidal dispersion filtration: description of critical flux and comparison with experimental results [PDF]
During filtration via membrane processes, colloids accumulate at the porous surface leading to fouling phenomena. In this study, a rigorous simulation of momentum and mass transfer using CFD modelling has been developed to describe such an accumulation ...

Does Glycine Betaine and Salicylic Acid Ameliorate the Negative Effect of Drought on Wheat by Regulating Osmotic Adjustment through Solutes Accumulation? [PDF]
A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the beneficial effect of foliar application of glycine betaine (10mM), grain presoaking in salicylic acid (0.05 M) and their interaction on drought tolerance of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L ...

Can osmotic pressure be negative? [PDF]
We have established cases (Murad, S., Powles, J. G. and Holtz, B., 1995, Molec. Phys., 86, 1437) in which the osmotic pressure, as conventionally defined, is negative even though the conventional criteria for osmotic equilibrium are satisfied, admittedly,

Saltstone Osmotic Pressure [PDF]
Recent research into the moisture retention properties of saltstone suggest that osmotic pressure may play a potentially significant role in contaminant transport (Dixon et al., 2009 and Dixon, 2011).

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes
Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

The role for osmotic agents in children with acute encephalopathies: a systematic review [PDF]
Background: Raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is known to complicate both traumatic and non-traumatic encephalopathies. It impairs cerebral perfusion and may cause death due to global ischaemia and intracranial herniation. Osmotic agents are widely used
