Interplay of phoresis and self-phoresis in active particles: Transport properties, phoretic, and self-phoretic coefficients

The Journal of Chemical Physics
Self-propelled synthetic particles have attracted scientific interest due to their potential applications as nanomotors in drug delivery and their insight into bacterial taxis. Research on their dynamics has focused on understanding phoresis and self-phoresis in catalytic Janus particles at both the nano- and microscale.

Coadaptación entre los ácaros (Arachnida: Klinckowstroemiidae) y coleópteros Passalidae (Insecta: Coleoptera) Co-adaptation between mites (Arachnida: Klinckowstroemiidae) and Passalidae beteles (Insecta: Coleoptera)

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2012
Realizamos un análisis de la relación que existe entre los ácaros Klinckowstroemiidae y los coleópteros Passalidae, puesto que los ácaros adultos se recolectaron exclusivamente sobre pasálidos (huéspedes).

Novel phoretic associations between mites and flies and faunistic composition of phoretic mites at composters in Poland

The European Zoological Journal
Mites living in transient and patchy environments frequently spread by phoresy, where many insects serve as carriers. This study aimed to investigate phoresy at compost piles in two orchards, Dąbrowice and Nowy Dwór-Parcela, and a fruit and vegetable ...

Exploring microbiome diversity between behavioural strategies in a facultatively parasitic mite

Parasitology
Parasitic arthropods often depend on symbiotic microbes to supplement their narrow diets. Facultative parasites exhibit variation in their parasitic activity and diet, and thus, might be expected to have greater variation in their microbial communities ...

On the Motion of Small Spheres in Gases. II. Thermo-phoresis, Diffusio-phoresis and Related Phenomena

Zeitschrift für Naturforschung A, 1972
Abstract Using the general theory developed by the author in the previous paper, the problems of thermo-phoresis and diffusio-phoresis have been examined with a view to elucidating the effect of a general gas-surface scattering law on the associated forces.
