Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

The Permeability of Waste Fiber Recycled Concrete

Medžiagotyra, 2019
Permeability is one of the major performances for recycled aggregate concrete, which affects the durability and service life of concrete structures. In most cases, the main factor affecting the permeability of recycled aggregate concrete is the pore ...

Fusion pore or porosome: structure and dynamics [PDF]

Journal of Endocrinology, 2003
Abstract Electrophysiological measurements on live secretory cells almost a decade ago suggested the presence of fusion pores at the cell plasma membrane. Membrane-bound secretory vesicles were hypothesized to dock and fuse at these sites, to release their contents.

The human gut microbiome across the life course

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Pore structure of surfactant modified montmorillonites [PDF]

, 2008
A series of organoclays with different surfactant arrangements were prepared by ion exchange. The resulting organoclays were investigated using a combination of characterization techniques, including XRD, FTIR, TG and N2 adsorption-desorption.

The Description of Shale Reservoir Pore Structure Based on Method of Moments Estimation.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Shale has been considered as good gas reservoir due to its abundant interior nanoscale pores. Thus, the study of the pore structure of shale is of great significance for the evaluation and development of shale oil and gas.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Pore structure characterization of porous building material by X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and X-ray microscopy (XRM)

e-Journal of Nondestructive Testing
 The pore structure of porous building materials, with pore elements ranging from nanometer to millimeter scale, often is a crucial factor that impacts the material’s functional properties.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Pore structure characterization of low-permeability sandstone by dual LNMR T2 cutoff values: a case study of the fourth member of shahejie formation, dongying sag, jiyang depression

Frontiers in Earth Science
Low-permeability sandstone reservoirs usually exhibit complex pore structure characteristics that significantly controls the type of fluid in the pore space and its occurrence and seepage mechanisms. In this work, the mercury injection capillary pressure
