Food surface texture measurement using reflective confocal laser scanning microscopy.
Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) was used in the reflection mode to characterize the surface texture (roughness) of sliced food surfaces. Sandpapers with grit size between 150 and 600 were used as height references to standardize the CLSM hardware settings. Sandpaper particle sizes were verified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mean amplitude (in micrometers) of surface varia...
متن کاملFirst-order wetting transition at finite contact angle.
The wetting of a polymer brush by a melt of similar chains can have a window of complete wetting with a classical allophobic wetting transition at low grafting density sigma and an autophobic one at high sigma. However, when the melt chains are much longer than the brush chains, the contact angle alpha goes through a nonzero minimum where partial differential alpha/ partial differential sigma h...
متن کاملHigh frame-rate fluorescence confocal angle-resolved linear dichroism microscopy.
Angle-resolved linear dichroism is a recent technique that exploits images recorded using an illumination field whose polarization angle is sequentially rotated during acquisition. It allows to retrieve orientation information of the fluorescent molecules, namely the average orientation angle and the amplitude of the fluctuations around this average. In order to boost up the acquisition speed w...
متن کاملReliable measurement of the receding contact angle.
Surface wettability is usually evaluated by the contact angle between the perimeter of a water drop and the surface. However, this single measurement is not enough for proper characterization, and the so-called advancing and receding contact angles also need to be measured. Measuring the receding contact angle can be challenging, especially for extremely hydrophobic surfaces. We demonstrate a r...
متن کاملConfocal microscopy and albumin penetration into contact lenses.
PURPOSE To develop a novel in vitro method to detect the depth of penetration of the tear film protein albumin into contact lens materials using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). METHODS A poly-HEMA-based hydrogel (etafilcon A) and a silicone hydrogel material (lotrafilcon B) were examined. In vitro, bovine serum albumin (BSA) was labeled with 5-(4,6-dichloro-s-triazin-2-ylamino) flu...
