Induced sensitivity of Bacillus subtilis colony morphology to mechanical media compression
Bacteria from several taxa, including Kurthia zopfii, Myxococcus xanthus, and Bacillus mycoides, have been reported to align growth of their colonies to small features on the surface of solid media, including anisotropies created by compression. While the function of this phenomenon is unclear, it may help organisms navigate on solid phases, such as soil. The origin of this behavior is also unk...
متن کاملPathology of lumbar nerve root compression. Part 1: Intraradicular inflammatory changes induced by mechanical compression.
STUDY DESIGN This study is to investigate the intraradicular inflammation induced by mechanical compression using in vivo model. OBJECTIVES The relationship between the intraradicular edema and nerve fiber degeneration induced by mechanical compression was determined in the nerve root. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Recently some studies reported that mechanical compression increased microvascu...
متن کاملMelt-based compression-molded scaffolds from chitosan-polyester blends and composites: Morphology and mechanical properties.
Blends of chitosan and synthetic aliphatic polyesters (polybutylene succinate, polybutylene succinate adipate, polycaprolactone, and polybutylene terepthalate adipate) were compounded with and without hydroxyapatite, a bioactive mineral filler known to enhance osteoconduction. The blends and composites were compression molded with two different granulometric salt sizes (63-125 microm and 250-50...
متن کاملThe morphology and mechanical sensitivity of lateral line receptors in zebrafish larvae (Danio rerio).
The lateral line system of fish and amphibians detects water flow with receptors on the surface of the body. Although differences in the shape of these receptors, called neuromasts, are known to influence their mechanics, it is unclear how neuromast morphology affects the sensitivity of the lateral line system. We examined the functional consequences of morphological variation by measuring the ...
متن کاملLow Frequency Noise sensitivity to technology induced mechanical stress in MOSFETs
A detailed experimental investigation of 1/f noise in MOSFET devices as a function of technology-induced mechanical stress is presented. Strain in the channel region is obtained by the Shallow Trench Isolation (STI) technique. Both nand p-MOS have been considered inside the present study. An increasing of 1/f noise intensity with the increasing intensity of mechanical stress has been detected f...
