Conversion of gel-forming crystal needles to easily processable more equant crystals Using high-shear ultralow attrition agitation: accelerated Ostwald ripening without crystal attrition
(American Chemical Society, 2019-02-01)We demonstrate the first examples of the transformation of gel-forming crystal needles into easily processable more equant crystals by accelerated Ostwald ripening without detectable crystal attrition. Using high solution ... -
Identification of Components of the Sigma B Regulon in Listeria monocytogenes That Contribute to Acid and Salt Tolerance
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008-09)Sigma B is an alternative sigma factor that controls the transcriptional response to stress in Listeria monocytogenes and is also known to play a role in the virulence of this human pathogen. In the present study we ... -
Multi-sector approximation method for arteries: the residual stresses of circumferential rings with non-trivial openings
(The Royal Society, 2019-07-24)The opening angle method is a popular choice in biomechanics to estimate residual stresses in arteries. Experimentally, it means that an artery is cut into rings; then the rings are cut axially or radially allowing them ... -
Prescribing patterns in growing tubular soft matter by initial residual stress
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-10-02)Initial residual stress is omnipresent in biological tissues and soft matter, and can affect growth-induced pattern selection significantly. Here we demonstrate this effect experimentally by letting soft tubes grow in the ... -
Sea-spray regulates sulfate cloud droplet activation over oceans
(Nature Research (part of Springer Nature), 2020-04-08)Sulfate aerosols are typically the dominant source of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) over remote oceans and their abundance is thought to be the dominating factor in determining oceanic cloud brightness. Their activation ...
