Multi-scale microrheology using fluctuating filaments as stealth probes
Kengo Nishi, Fred C. MacKintosh, Christoph F. Schmidt
The mechanical properties of soft materials can be probed on small length scales by various microrheology methods. A common approach tracks fluctuations of micrometer-sized beads e…
Cell nucleus as a microrheological probe to study the rheology of the cytoskeleton
Moslem Moradi, Ehssan Nazockdast
Mechanical properties of the cell are important biomarkers for probing its architectural changes caused by cellular processes and/or pathologies. The development of microfluidic te…
Double Helical Conformation and Extreme Rigidity in a Rodlike Polyelectrolyte
Ying Wang, Yadong He, Zhou Yu +11
The ubiquitous biomacromolecule DNA has an axial rigidity persistence length of ~50 nm, driven by its elegant double helical structure. While double and multiple helix structures a…
Electroneutrality Breakdown and Specific Ion Effects in Nanoconfined Aqueous Electrolytes Observed by NMR
Zhi-Xiang Luo, Yun-Zhao Xing, Yan-Chun Ling +2
Ion distribution in aqueous electrolytes near the interface plays critical roles in electrochemical, biological and colloidal systems and is expected to be particularly significant…
