Abstract Surface wetting is a multiscale phenomenon where properties at the macroscale are determined by features at much smaller length scales, such as nanoscale surface topographies. Traditionally, the wetting of surfaces is quantified by the macro

Embargo 12 kk The inability of traditional chemotherapeutics to reach cancer tissue reduces the treatment efficacy and leads to adverse effects. A multifunctional nanovector was developed consisting of porous silicon, superparamagnetic iron oxide, ca

Viscosity-enhanced droplet motion in sealed superhydrophobic capillaries

Autor: Maja, Vuckovac, Matilda, Backholm, Jaakko V I, Timonen, Robin H A, Ras

Publikováno v: Science Advances

The general rule that viscosity slows droplet motion fails for a droplet in a superhydrophobic tube closed in one or both ends.
It is well known that an increased viscosity slows down fluid dynamics. Here we show that this intuitive rule is not

Caffeine is a small amphiphilic molecule, which is widely consumed as a stimulant to prevent fatigue, but is also used as a common drug adjuvant in modern medicine. Here, we show that caffeine interacts with unsaturated lipid membranes made of 1-palm
