Adsorption of methylene blue on papaya bark fiber: Equilibrium, isotherm and kinetic perspectives

Nipa, Sumaya Tarannum; Shefa, Nawrin Rahman; Parvin, Shahanaz; Khatun, Most Afroza; Alam, Md Jahangir; Chowdhury, Sujan; Khan, M. Azizur R.; Shawon, Sk Md Ali Zaker; Biswas, Biplob K.; Rahman, Md Wasikur (Results In Engineering, 2022-12-21)

Rapid population growth and industrial expansion lead us to be habitat of a polluted planet. One of the major pollutants that badly affect the ecosystem being organic dyes released from various chemical industries where ...
Engineered fluidic systems to understand lymphatic cancer metastasis

Greenlee, Joshua D.; King, Michael R. (Biomicrofluidics, 2020-01)

The majority of all cancers metastasize initially through the lymphatic system. Despite this, the mechanisms of lymphogenous metastasis remain poorly understood and understudied compared to hematogenous metastasis. Over ...
Engineered models to parse apart the metastatic cascade

Hapach, Lauren A.; Mosier, Jenna A.; Wang, Wenjun; Reinhart-King, Cynthia A. (NPJ Precision Oncology, 2019-08-21)

While considerable progress has been made in studying genetic and cellular aspects of metastasis with in vitro cell culture and in vivo animal models, the driving mechanisms of each step of metastasis are still relatively ...
Effects of Prolonged Head-Down Bed Rest on Cardiac and Vascular Baroreceptor Modulation and Orthostatic Tolerance in Healthy Individuals

Barbic, Franca; Heusser, Karsten; Minonzio, Maura; Shiffer, Dana; Cairo, Beatrice; Tank, Jens; Jordan, Jens; Diedrich, Andre; Gauger, Peter; Zamuner, Roberto Antonio; Porta, Alberto; Furlan, Raffaello (Frontiers in Pyhsiology, 2019-08-23)

Orthostatic intolerance commonly occurs after prolonged bed rest, thus increasing the risk of syncope and falls. Baroreflex-mediated adjustments of heart rate and sympathetic vasomotor activity (muscle sympathetic nerve ...
Thermal block of action potentials is primarily due to voltage-dependent potassium currents: a modeling study

Ganguly, Mohit; Jenkins, Michael W.; Jansen, E. Duco; Chiel, Hillel J. (Journal of Neural Engineering, 2019-06)

Objective. Thermal block of action potential conduction using infrared lasers is a new modality for manipulating neural activity. It could be used for analysis of the nervous system and for therapeutic applications. We ...
Cold exposure induces dynamic, heterogeneous alterations in human brown adipose tissue lipid content

Coolbaugh, Crystal L.; Damon, Bruce M.; Bush, Emily C.; Welch, E. Brian; Towse, Theodore F. (Scientific Reports, 2019-09-19)

Brown adipose tissue undergoes a dynamic, heterogeneous response to cold exposure that can include the simultaneous synthesis, uptake, and oxidation of fatty acids. The purpose of this work was to quantify these changes ...
