Ultrasound-enhanced mass transfer during single-bubble diffusive growth [PDF]
Ultrasound is known to enhance surface bubble growth and removal in catalytic and microfluidic applications, yet the contributions of rectified diffusion and microstreaming phenomena towards mass transfer remain unclear.

Transcutaneous ultrasound energy harvesting using capacitive triboelectric technology
A sound way to deliver power Implanted medical devices, such as pacemakers and neurological stimulators, require a source of power, usually in the form of a battery. If a battery is implanted with the device, replacing it would require additional surgery.

Currently, the role of ultrasound (US) in anaesthesia-related airway assessment and procedural interventions is encouraging, though it is still ill defined. US can visualise anatomical structures in the supraglottic, glottic and subglottic regions. The floor of the mouth can be visualised by both transcutaneous view of the neck and also by transoral or

Critical parameters for efficient sonication and improved chromatin immunoprecipitation of high molecular weight proteins [PDF]
Solubilization of cross-linked cells followed by chromatin shearing is essential for successful chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). However, this task, typically accomplished by ultrasound treatment, may often become a pitfall of the process, due to ...

Blood–brain barrier opening in Alzheimer’s disease using MR-guided focused ultrasound
Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound in combination with intravenously injected microbubbles has been shown to transiently open the blood–brain barrier, and reduce beta-amyloid and tau pathology in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease.
