Electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs) also known as supercapacitors are a category of energy storage devices that are known for their remarkable power delivery (upto 1000KW/kg). The energy storage is through physical ...

A significant fraction of the materials handled in the chemical, food-processing, and pharmaceutical industries are particulate in nature. Screw feeder systems are often employed in such scenarios to achieve their bulk ...

The bacterial cell envelopes possess a complex multilayered architecture exhibiting unique properties evolved to regulate interactions with the external environment and molecules with antimicrobial properties. A molecular ...

We investigate the interactions of pore-forming toxins (PFTs) with cholesterol-rich membranes through atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. The PFT of interest is Cytolysin A (ClyA or HlyE). Cytolysin A (ClyA), an ...

Passive immunization has been used classically to rapidly clear antigen and reduce disease burden. Surprisingly, recent studies have found passive immunization to induce lasting improvements in the humoral response, ...

Of late, the demand of wearable sensors has exponentially risen. For example, strain sensors that can be worn and are skin mountable play a significant role in the areas of human motion detection, healthcare, soft robotics, ...

Over the past decade, developing affordable home-based tests to diagnose infectious diseases has become a pressing need. The lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is the most successfully commercialized point-of-care immunoassay. ...

The biological membrane is a thin fluidic matrix composed of a lipid bilayer that forms the primary cellular barrier against the extracellular environment. The high-density of embedded proteins and glycosylated molecules ...

One of the key challenges in nanoparticle synthesis is the quality control on scaling up the operation from bench to plant scale, which is constrained by conventionally adopted batch operation. Translation from batch ...

Refractive-Index-Matched Fluorescent Particle Image Velocimetry for Investigation of Flow in Immersed Granular Materials The ubiquity of granular materials and their importance in everyday life, industry, and nature make ...
