Assessment of transient changes in oxygen diffusion of single red blood cells using a microfluidic analytical platform
Red blood cells (RBCs) capability to deliver oxygen (O 2 ) has been routinely measured by P50. Although this defines the ability of RBCs to carry O 2 ...

Pathways of extra- and intercellular diffusion of colored substances in the blackened xylem of Diospyros kaki
Some species of Diospyros form the black wood that is known as ebony. Infrequently, D . kaki forms wood with black patterning that is called...

Single microcolony diffusion analysis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms
The influence of the biofilm matrix on molecular diffusion is commonly hypothesized to be responsible for emergent characteristics of biofilms such...

Dynamic structure of E. coli cytoplasm: supramolecular complexes and cell aging impact spatial distribution and mobility of proteins
Protein diffusion is a critical factor governing the functioning and organization of a cell’s cytoplasm. In this study, we investigate the influence...

Analysis of Efferocytic Receptor Dynamics and Synapse Formation in a Frustrated Efferocytosis Model
Efferocytes express multiple receptors that mediate the recognition and engulfment of apoptotic cells through a process known as efferocytosis.... -
Improving efficiency of knowledge and technology diffusion using community seed banks and farmer-to-farmer extension: experiences from Malawi
BackgroundAgri-innovations are mostly delivered to farmers through private and public sector-led institutions around the world, with various degrees...

Effects of Buffers Over the Cytosolic Calcium Concentration
In this chapter, we study the change in cellular calcium with different buffers. The study is carried over the advection–diffusion equation framed... -
Evaluation of the Etest and disk diffusion method for detection of the activity of ceftazidime-avibactam against Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in China
BackgroundCeftazidime-avibactam was approved in China in 2019 for treating complicated intra-abdominal infections, hospital-acquired pneumonia,...

Regulation of Root Tissue Size and Adaptations to Hypoxia
Soil flooding restricts gas exchange between the air and the soil. Thus, the oxygen level gradually decreases in the soil through the respiration of... -
The Role of Myoglobin and Lipids in Correcting Oxygen Diffusion in Skeletal Muscles of Bony Fish (A Review)
AbstractInformation on the pattern of oxygen diffusion in skeletal muscles of bony fish is discussed. This diffusion is determined by a number of...

Chapter 3 Mesophyll Conductance to CO2 Diffusion in a Climate Change Scenario: Effects of Elevated CO2, Temperature and Water Stress
Mesophyll conductanceMesophyll conductances to CO2 (gm) is a key component of leaf photosynthesisPhotosynthesis: it describes the inverse of the... -
Cyclo(Phe-Pro) produced by Vibrio species passes through biological membranes by simple diffusion
AbstractCyclo(Phe-Pro) (cFP), produced by the Vibrio species, plays the dual roles of being a signaling molecule and a virulence factor. Acting...

Anomalous Subdiffusive Behavior of Cytosolic Calcium
In this chapter, we investigate calcium signaling in cardiac myocytes. Calcium is a critical regulator of cardiac myocyte functions. Here, we develop... -
Asymptotic Behavior of Solutions of the Bipolar Quantum Drift-Diffusion Model in the Quarter Plane
In this study, we consider the one-dimensional bipolar quantum drift-diffusion model, which consists of the coupled nonlinear fourth-order parabolic...

Large-scale lexical and genetic alignment supports a hybrid model of Han Chinese demic and cultural diffusions
The Han Chinese history is shaped by substantial demographic activities and sociocultural transmissions. However, it remains challenging to assess...

Oxygen Transport and Plant Ventilation
Internal transport of gases is critical for plants inhabiting flood-prone areas that experience soil oxygen deficiency. Plant adaptation to... -
Rayleigh step-selection functions and connections to continuous-time mechanistic movement models
BackgroundThe process known as ecological diffusion emerges from a first principles view of animal movement, but ecological diffusion and other...
