Effects of hemodynamic shear stress on circulating tumor cells by How, Yunhan

“…MDA-231-C3 was circulated and recovered repeatedly to obtain a series of flow-selected breast cancer cell lines (231-S1 to 231-S6). The effect of fluid shear stress on CTC survival was studied by quantifying the cell viability and level of apoptosis at 0-hr, 12-hr and 24-hr time points of circulation. …”

Aphid Resistance Segregates Independently of Cardenolide and Glucosinolate Content in an Erysimum cheiranthoides (Wormseed Wallflower) F2 Population by Mirzaei, Mahdieh, Younkin, Gordon C., Powell, Adrian F., Alani, Martin L., Strickler, Susan R., Jander, Georg

“…However, this variation in defensive metabolites could not explain the differences in aphid growth on the two parental lines, suggesting that processes other than the abundance of glucosinolates and cardenolides have a predominant effect on aphid resistance in E. cheiranthoides.…”

Three-dimensional hydraulic modeling of particle deposition on the patterned isopore membrane in crossflow microfiltration by Choi, Dong-Chan, Jung, Seon-Yeop, Won, Young-June, Jang, Jun Hee, Lee, Jaewoo, Chae, Hee-Ro, Ahn, Kyung Hyun, Lee, Sangho, Park, Pyung-Kyu, Lee, Chung-Hak

“…Particularly, the ratio of crossflow velocity to pore water flux mostly governed the extent of particle depositions (i.e., membrane fouling) on the patterned membrane surface and 3-D modeling based on computational fluid dynamics was also conducted to predict the formation of two distinct stream lines (bulk and vortex) and elucidate the mechanisms of anti-fouling characteristics of patterned membranes.…”
