Impermeability effects in three-dimensional vesicles

, 2004
We analyse the effects that the impermeability constraint induces on the equilibrium shapes of a three-dimensional vesicle hosting a rigid inclusion. A given alteration of the inclusion and/or vesicle parameters leads to shape modifications of different ...

Hard Spheres in Vesicles: Curvature-Induced Forces and Particle-Induced Curvature [PDF]

, 1997
We explore the interplay of membrane curvature and nonspecific binding due to excluded-volume effects among colloidal particles inside lipid bilayer vesicles. We trapped submicron spheres of two different sizes inside a pear-shaped, multilamellar vesicle

Chemical Composition, Amino Acids, Phenolic Profiles and Bioavailability of Minerals in Livingstone Potato (Plectranthus esculentus) as Affected by Different Processing Techniques

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.

Trials to control European pear sucker [PDF]

, 2006
European pear sucker causes financial penalties in many pear orchards. Honey dew exudations reduce quality. Another problem is the transmission of pear decline. In years of high infestation chemical treatments are complicated.
