Diffusion Barriers
Diffusion is interesting because it is slow. As a result, many studies of diffusion seek ways to make the process fast and selective. For example, most membrane separations use thin polymer films to recover particular chemicals. Nitrogen is separated from air, and water is purified by ultrafiltration. This is an active and important area of diffusion research. However, in other cases, we may se...
متن کاملDiffusion neutral and diffusion dependent patterning
In this paper a connection between reaction-diffusion systems with small diffusion coefficients and the corresponding shorted systems (where diffusion is removed) is investigated. We obtain new sufficient conditions showing when solutions are completely defined by the corresponding shorted system and when, in contrast to this, pattern formation depends on diffusion. We call the two situations, ...
متن کاملSemi-permeable Diffusion Barriers Enhance Patterning Robustness in the C. elegans Germline.
Positional information derived from local morphogen concentration plays an important role in patterning. A key question is how morphogen diffusion and gene expression regulation shape positional information into an appropriate profile with suitably low noise. We address this question using a model system--the C. elegans germline--whose regulatory network has been well characterized genetically ...
متن کاملPatterning Barriers to Lateral Diffusion in Supported Lipid Bilayer Membranes by Blotting and Stamping
Two new methods are introduced for patterning fluid lipid bilayer membranes on solid supports. These methods are based on the observation that supported membranes undergo self-limiting lateral expansion when bilayer material is removed from the surface or when it is deposited in a pattern on a surface. Spatially selective (patterned) removal of bilayer material can be achieved by using a poly(d...
متن کاملApoplastic diffusion barriers in Arabidopsis.
During the development of Arabidopsis and other land plants, diffusion barriers are formed in the apoplast of specialized tissues within a variety of plant organs. While the cuticle of the epidermis is the primary diffusion barrier in the shoot, the Casparian strips and suberin lamellae of the endodermis and the periderm represent the diffusion barriers in the root. Different classes of molecul...
