Biased swimming cells do not disperse in pipes as tracers: a population model based on microscale behaviour
R. N. Bearon, M. A. Bees, O. A. Croze
There is much current interest in modelling suspensions of algae and other micro-organisms for biotechnological exploitation, and many bioreactors are of tubular design. Using gene…
Dispersion of swimming algae in laminar and turbulent channel flows: consequences for photobioreactors
O. A. Croze, G. Sardina, M. Ahmed +2
Shear flow significantly affects the transport of swimming algae in suspension. For example, viscous and gravitational torques bias bottom-heavy cells to swim towards regions of do…
Differential Dynamic Microscopy: a High-Throughput Method for Characterizing the Motility of Microorganism
Vincent A. Martinez, Rut Besseling, Ottavio A. Croze +6
We present a fast, high-throughput method for characterizing the motility of microorganisms in 3D based on standard imaging microscopy. Instead of tracking individual cells, we ana…
