Surface Tension and Detergency [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1947
The surface tension of an aqueous solution has long been recognized as one of the more important physical properties controlling its wetting and detergent powers, though early attempts to correlate these powers with equilibrium surface tension met o with limited success.

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Surface tension of nanoparticle dispersions unravelled by size-dependent non-occupied sites free energy versus adsorption kinetics

open access: yesnpj Microgravity, 2022
The surface tension of dispersions presents many types of behaviours. Although some models, based on classical surface thermodynamics, allow partial interpretation, fundamental understanding is still lacking.

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS 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

Survismeter, 3-in-1 Instrument for Simultaneous Measurements of Surface Tension, Inter Facial Tension (IFT) and Viscosity [PDF]

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Analytical & Environmental Chemistry, 2007
The article presents Inter Facial Tension (IFT) (ift, N m-1) of benzene-water; surface tensions (, N m-1) and viscosities (, N s m-2) of ethanol, glycerol, ethyl acetate, n-hexane, diethyl ether, chloroform, benzene, carbon tetrachloride [CCl4],

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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...

Surface-Tension-Driven Dynamic Contact Line in Microgravity

open access: yes, 2018
We study the effect of Marangoni flow on a dynamic contact line formed by a propagating reaction front and a liquid–air interface. The self-sustained iodate–arsenous acid reaction maintains the production of the weakly surface active iodine leading to an

Extension of the natural element method to surface tension and wettability for the simulation of polymer flows at the micro and nano scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The natural element method is used to simulate two-dimensional viscous flows where interfacial effects must be taken into account, for application to polymer melts at the micro and nano scales.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...
