Confinement enhances the diversity of microbial flow fields
Raphaël Jeanneret, Dmitri O. Pushkin, Marco Polin
Despite their importance in many biological, ecological and physical processes, microorganismal fluid flows under tight confinement have not been investigated experimentally. Stron…
Universal entrainment mechanism governs contact times with motile cells
Arnold Mathijssen, Raphaël Jeanneret, Marco Polin
Contact between particles and motile cells underpins a wide variety of biological processes, from nutrient capture and ligand binding, to grazing, viral infection and cell-cell com…
Entrainment dominates the interaction of microalgae with micron-sized objects
Raphaël Jeanneret, Vasily Kantsler, Marco Polin
The incessant activity of swimming microorganisms has a direct physical effect on surrounding microscopic objects, leading to enhanced diffusion far beyond the level of Brownian mo…
