Active BSA droplets loaded with urease swim toward each other. Passive BSA droplets show diverse responses to externally applied gradients of the enzyme’s substrate and products. In all these cases, droplets swim toward solvent conditions that favor their dissolution. We call this behavior “dialyt...
Light scattering properties and particle size distributions for phase separated droplets in a polymer matrix are investigated. The matrix materials are polyethyl methacrylate and a styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer. Precipitated phases are polystyrene and docosane. Effects of molecular weight, ...
Fig. 1: Engineering motile aqueous phase-separated droplets via liposome stabilisation. aPEG (polyethylene glycol)/DEX (dextran) solution separates into PEG-rich and DEX-rich phase to form ATPS (aqueous two-phase system).bPreparation of liposome in PEG-rich solution.cPreparation of emulsion droplet...
Fig.1b), we were able to control the number of droplets sorted in each well-down to single coacervates. The presence of high concentration GualHCl led to a change in turbidity of the coacervate dispersion from cloudy to clear which is synonymous with the dissolution of coacervate droplets ...
We report measurements on solid 3 He droplets embedded in a solid 4 He matrix. A feature of our experiments is that the mixture crystals, of 1% 3 He concen
A viscosity reduction of LAF-1 droplets (a key protein in P granule formation) after the addition of short RNA strands has been observed without significantly affecting droplet stability (43). On the contrary, the inclusion of long RNA chains inside the condensates can also notably enhance their...
said phase being dispersed within a continuous aqueous phase, and wherein said dye materials are concentrated within said droplets to the extent that the intensity of the color imparted by the dye materials to the droplets is greater than the intensity of the color imparted by the dye materials...
wherein the water soluble dyes are concentrated in a discontinuous phase of liquid emulsion droplets dispersed within the droplets to the extent that the intensity of the color imparted by the dye materials to the droplets is greater than the intensity of the color imparted by the dye materials...
Compartmentalization of cellular material in droplet-like structures is a hallmark of liquid–liquid phase separation1,2, but the mechanisms of droplet removal are poorly understood. Evidence suggests that droplets can be degraded by autophagy3,4, a high
