Reassessing fast water transport through carbon nanotubes.
Pressure-driven water flow through carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with diameters ranging from 1.66 to 4.99 nm is examined using molecular dynamics simulation. The flow rate enhancement, defined as the ratio of the observed flow rate to that predicted from the no-slip Hagen-Poiseuille relation, is calculated for each CNT. The enhancement decreases with increasing CNT diameter and ranges from 433 to 47....
متن کاملUsing Zirconium Borohydride as Neutron Shield in LINAC head
Introduction: One of the concerns about using of high energy photons in radiotherapy is neutron contamination production. The threshold energy of photoneutron production in most materials with high atomic number is about 7MeV. Therefore, it seems to be logical that the main components with high atomic number elements used in the LINAC head have a large contribution to the neutr...
متن کاملWater transport through the kidney
In occupational medicine, measurements of levels within the urine of toxic chemicals, or their metabolites, are used to indicate the level of exposure of workers to chemicals. In a worker’s body the kidney is the main organ taking care of the excretion of unwanted/toxic chemicals and the recovery of useful ones, via three mechanisms: filtration, reabsorption and secretion. We model these proces...
متن کاملIron Imports. V. Transport of iron through the intestinal epithelium.
Iron absorption across the brush-border membrane requires divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), whereas ferroportin (FPN) and hephaestin are required for exit across the basolateral membrane. However, how iron passes across the enterocyte is poorly understood. Both chaperones and transcytosis have been postulated to account for intracellular iron transport. With iron feeding, DMT1 undergoes endo...
