Quantifying Nanoparticle-Cell Interactions

Nanoparticles are finding increasing applications in the field of medicine [1], with extensive research being conducted on the design of nanoparticles to enhance targeted uptake and action [2]. Preliminary investigations of nanoparticles with potential applications in medicine involve in vitro testing to explore cellular uptake (particle dose) and action. Analytical transmission electron micros...

Quantifying and Visualizing Attribute Interactions

Interactions are the prototypical examples of unexpected and irreducible patterns in data that encompass several attributes. We attempt to unify the divergent definitions and conceptions of interactions present in the literature, and propose two separate conceptions of what interactions are: if a group of attributes interacts observationally, we cannot understand their relationship without look...

Molecular balances for quantifying non-covalent interactions.

Molecular interactions underlie the whole of chemistry and biology. This tutorial review illustrates the use of rotameric folding molecules, topoisomers, atropoisomers, and tautomers as molecular balances for quantifying non-covalent interactions. This intramolecular approach enables a wide variety of interactions to be examined with a degree of geometric control that is difficult to achieve in...

A Cascading Failure Model by Quantifying Interactions

Cascading failures triggered by trivial initial events are encountered in many complex systems. It is the interaction and coupling between components of the system that causes cascading failures. We propose a simple model to simulate cascading failure by using the matrix that determines how components interact with each other. A careful comparison is made between the original cascades and the s...
