Size-resolved inhalation intake fractions for particles released from human activities in residential indoor environments
Inhalation exposure to elevated concentrations of airborne particulate matter is a public health concern. Assessment of exposure can be enhanced through better knowledge of source-receptor relationships, which can be characterized through the inhalation in ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2023SOFT BIDIRECTIONAL BENDING ACTUATOR BASED ON MAGNETORHOGICAL FLUIDS
The goal of this project is to design and fabricate a bidirectional bending actuator for soft robotics applications. The actuation principle will be based on magnetorheological fluids (MRFs). MRFs are smart materials consisting of micro-meter-sized particl ...
2023Hierarchy of the Components in Spray-Dried, Protein-Excipient Particles Using DNP-Enhanced NMR Spectroscopy
David Lyndon Emsley, Pierrick Berruyer, Andrea Bertarello, Baptiste Busi
Protein-based drugs are becoming increasingly important, but there are challenges associated with their formulation (for example, formulating stable inhalable aerosols while maintaining the proper long-term stability of the protein). Determining the morpho ...
Washington2023Anomaly-free scale symmetry and gravity
In this Letter, we address the question of whether the conformal invariance can be considered as a global symmetry of a theory of fundamental interactions. To describe Nature, this theory must contain a mechanism of spontaneous breaking of the scale symmet ...
ELSEVIER2023Revealing the Formation Dynamics of Janus Polymer Particles: Insights from Experiments and Molecular Dynamics
Seeded emulsion polymerization is one of the best-known methods for preparing polymer particles with a controlled size, composition, and shape. It first requires the preparation of seed particles, which are then swollen with additional monomer (the same as ...
Washington2023Assessment of real-time bioaerosol particle counters using reference chamber experiments
Bertrand Calpini, Benoît Crouzy, Alireza Moallemi, Eric Sauvageat, Konstantina Vasilatou
This study presents the first reference calibrations of three commercially available bioaerosol detectors. The Droplet Measurement Technologies WIBS-NEO (new version of the wideband integrated bioaerosol spectrometer), Plair Rapid-E, and Swisens Poleno wer ...
2022The effect of high relative humidity on a network of water-sensitive particles (couscous) as revealed by in situ X-ray tomography
Water significantly influences the mechanical behaviour of all granular materials but none as much as hygroscopic amorphous particles. With sufficiently high water content, particles can swell, agglomerate and their mechanical properties can be reduced, ha ...
ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY2022Drops: Controlled crystallization of organic crystals and their use as matrix materials for encapsulation of volatiles
Encapsulation techniques open up new possibilities to control the kinetics and location of the release of active ingredients. Despite the progresses achieved to obtain a better control over the dimensions and composition of the capsules, the encapsulation ...
EPFL2022Dipole polarizability of time-varying particles
Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Theodoros Koutserimpas, Mohammad Sajjad Mirmoosa
Invariance under time translation (or stationarity) is probably one of the most important assumptions made when investigating electromagnetic phenomena. Breaking this assumption is expected to open up novel possibilities and result in exceeding conventiona ...
2022Particle-sorting fluidic device and methods for using thereof
Carlotta Guiducci, Gloria Porro, Kevin Keim
Device, system and method for sorting particles comprised into a fluid are disclosed that improve the current settings of deterministic lateral displacement (DLD)-based microfluidic devices, so to sort and detect small particles such as extracellular vesic ...
