Nonequilibrium Wet–Dry Cycling Acts as a Catalyst for Chemical Reactions
The Journal of Physical Chemistry BRecent experimental studies suggest that wet-dry cycles and coexisting phases can each strongly alter chemical processes. The mechanisms of why and to which degree chemical processes are altered when subject to evaporation and condensation are unclear. To close this gap, we developed a theoretical framework for non-dilute chemical reactions subject to ...

Reliability Study on FRP Composites Exposed to Wet-Dry Cycles [PDF]
Applied Sciences, 2018 Due to lack of research data on the rates of deterioration of FRP properties under a harsh environment exposure, it was pointed out in the design guidelines that the durability of FRP needs to be further developed. Therefore, in this study, 48 FRP samples were tested under wet-dry cycles exposure.

Protocol for quantifying miRNA trafficking across the endosomal membrane
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.An in vitro protocol measures miRNA uptake into endosomes isolated from mammalian cell extracts, which are free of subcellular contaminants. Performed at 37 °C in the presence of ATP, it ensures the import of single‐stranded miRNA into the endosomal lumen.
