Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics
Nanofluidics has firmly established itself as a new field in fluid mechanics, as novel properties have been shown to emerge in fluids at the nanometric scale. Thanks to recent developments in fabrication technology, artificial nanofluidic systems are now being designed at the scale of biological nanopores. This ultimate step in scale reduction has ...

Metallophytes constitute powerful models to study metal homeostasis, adaptation to extreme environments and the evolution of naturally-selected traits. Arabidopsis halleri is a pseudometallophyte which shows constitutive Zn/Cd tolerance and Zn hyperaccumulation but high intraspecific variability in Cd accumulation. To examine the molecular basis of...

Nanotechnology
We investigated the effect of an electric treatment on the wettability of aqueous solution on carbon nanotubes (CNT) and ion transport behaviors in superhydrophobic porous carbon nanotube sponges (CNTS). This electric activation treatment where an electric voltage was applied across highly porous CNT sponge induced an electrowetting effect. This ef...

Macromolecular rapid communications
Polymer electrolytes with high aromatic content are prepared through thiol-ene polymerization with functionalized, low molecular weight fractions of softwood pine Kraft lignin, and wheat straw/Sarkanda grass soda lignin. Differing solubility, functionality, and aromatic content of the lignin fractions vary the glass transition temperatures of the r...

Membranes and Membrane Technologies
AbstractComposite membrane materials based on Nafion-117 gradient modified by poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) are prepared by in situ oxidative polymerization. 0.002 M and 0.01 M solutions of the monomer are used for the synthesis of PEDOT, while the concentration of the oxidant is varied. The equilibrium (water uptake, ion exchange capaci...

Cl- and HCO3 - had similar paracellular permeabilities in human airway epithelia. PCl /PNa of airway epithelia was unaltered by pH 7.4 vs. pH 6.0 solutions. Under basal conditions, calculated paracellular HCO3 - flux was secretory. Cytokines that increased airway surface liquid pH decreased or reversed paracellular HCO3 - flux. HCO3 - flux through ...

Largemouth bass (LMB; Micropterus salmoides) has been an economically important fish in North America, Europe, and China. This study obtained a chromosome-level genome assembly of LMB using PacBio and Hi-C sequencing. The final assembled genome is 964 Mb, with contig N50 and scaffold N50 values of 1.23 Mb and 36.48 Mb, respectively. Combining with ...

Some plasma membrane intrinsic protein (PIP) aquaporins can facilitate ion transport. Here we report that one of the 12 barley PIPs (PIP1 and PIP2) tested, HvPIP2;8 , facilitated cation transport when expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. HvPIP2;8 -associated ion currents were detected with Na+ and K+, but not Cs+, Rb+, or Li+, and was inhibited by ...

In vitro cultures of primary human airway epithelial cells (hAECs) grown at air–liquid interface have become a valuable tool to study airway biology under normal and pathologic conditions, and for drug discovery in lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis (CF). An increasing number of different differentiation media, are now available, making comparis...
