In this interview, Dr. Andreas Charles Voelker, CEO of LS Instruments talks to AZoM about microrheology technology and the applications and industries that will benefit from this technique. At LS ...

Rheology refers to the study of flow and deformation of materials under imposed stress. The limitations of material behavior are the ideal (Hookean) solid, which is distinguished by an elastic modulus ...

In Physics of Fluids, Vega et al. researched human tears at the micron level to reveal new ways of customizing artificial tears to address individual symptoms of dry eye disease. The detailed insights ...

This video illustrates how microrheology measurements of proteins and polymers are taken on the Zetasizer Nano ZSP with advanced software from Malvern Panalytical. The viscosity and viscoelasticity of ...

We report an atomic force microscopy (AFM) method for assessing elastic and viscous properties of soft samples at acoustic frequencies under non-contact conditions. The method can be used to measure ...

Microbial activity in planktonic systems creates a dynamic and heterogeneous microscale seascape that harbors a diverse community of microorganisms and ecological interactions of global significance.

Kelly Schultz showed that thiol-ene step-growth hydrogels degrade homogeneously when exposed to enzymes. K.M. Schultz and K.S. Anseth, "Monitoring Degradation of Matrix Metalloproteinases-Cleavable ...

WASHINGTON, July 11, 2023 – Compared to artificial tears, or eye drops, human tears are significantly more complex liquids, with a wide range of components including lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, ...
