Salt-mediated inactivation of influenza A virus in 1- μl droplets exhibits exponential dependence on NaCl molality

Athanasios Nenes, Tamar Kohn, Kalliopi Violaki, Ghislain Gilles Jean-Michel Motos, Aline Laetitia Schaub, Shannon Christa David, Walter Hugentobler, Céline Terrettaz, Laura Costa, Laura José Costa Henriques

Influenza A virus (IAV) spreads through airborne particles ranging from sub-micrometer to millimeter-sized droplets. The stability of airborne IAV remains difficult to estimate and depends, among others, on the respiratory matrix composition and the size-d ...

Influence of water on deformation and failure of gypsum rock

Alexandra Roma Larisa Kushnir

While water is known to significantly reduce the strength of rocks, there remains a paucity of data on water-weakening of gypsum. Here, we quantify water-weakening in a natural gypsum facies from Monferrato (Italy) by performing experiments on nominally dr ...

Electrospray film deposition for solvent-elimination infrared spectroscopy

Satoshi Takahama, Giulia Ruggeri, Nikunj Dudani, Andrea Mario Arangio, Amir Yazdani, Christophe Eric Ludovic Delval

The application of electrospray (ES) for quantitative transfer of analytes from solution to an internal reflection element for analysis by Attenuated Total Reflectance - Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy has been developed in this work. Th ...

A high sensitivity, low noise and high spatial resolution multi-band infrared reflectography camera for the study of paintings and works on paper

Marie Eve Pascale Didier

Background: Infrared reflectography (IRR) remains an important method to visualize underdrawing and compositional changes in paintings. Older IRR camera systems are being replaced with near-infrared cameras consisting of room temperature infrared detector ...

A Review of Non-saturated Resin Flow in Liquid Composite Moulding processes

Véronique Michaud

The fundamentals of flow in the liquid composite moulding (LCM) processes are reviewed with an emphasis on multiphase flow effects considering the dual-scale thin porous media constituted by the textiles, and the dynamic wetting effects observed with visco ...

Bioinspired Selective Surface Deposition of Fragrance Delivery Systems

Kemal Arda Günay

The perception of pleasantness in many of the consumer goods is provided by volatile chemical compounds called fragrances. While the volatility of fragrances is essential to provide a pleasant olfactory response, it presents at the same time a technologi ...

Alginate-Poly(ethylene glycol) Hybrid Microspheres for Primary Cell Microencapsulation

Jutta Christine Wandrey, Redouan Mahou

The progress of medical therapies, which rely on the transplantation of microencapsulated living cells, depends on the quality of the encapsulating material. Such material has to be biocompatible, and the microencapsulation process must be simple and not h ...

Desiccation shrinkage of non-clayey soils: multi-physics mechanisms and a microstructural model

Lyesse Laloui, Hervé Péron

Analysis of macroscopic desiccation shrinkage experiments indicates that most, but not all of the shrinkage during drying occurs while soil is still saturated. Shrinkage practically ceases and air starts to penetrate the soil, when the water content is sti ...

Direct Alkynylation of Indole and Pyrrole Heterocycles

Jérôme Waser, Jonathan Brand, Julie Charpentier

Easy does it: The unique properties of benziodoxolone alkynyl periodinane 1 and gold catalysts have allowed the development of a high yielding, operationally simple (room temperature, no dry solvents or inert conditions, commercially available catalyst) re ...

Characteristic lengths affecting evaporative drying of porous media

Dani Or

Evaporation from porous media involves mass and energy transport including phase change, vapor diffusion, and liquid flow, resulting in complex displacement patterns affecting drying rates. Force balance considering media properties yields characteristic l ...
