Segregation in desiccated sessile drops of biological fluids.
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is shown here that concurrence between advection and diffusion in a drying sessile drop of a biological fluid can produce spatial redistribution of albumen and salt. The result gives an explanation for the patterns observed in the dried drops of the biological fluids.

Segregation in the Desiccated Sessile Drops of the Biological Fluids∗
The priority in the investigation of the dehydration self-organization phenomenon in biological fluids belongs to Prof. E. G. Rapis. While seeming simple, the effect turned out to be extremely complicated and to involve a number of interrelated processes of different nature. The biological fluids are complex colloidal systems. Even the slightest variation in the composition of a liquid leads to...
متن کاملSessile and Pendant Micro-Liter Drops Evaporate at Different Rates: An Experimental Approach
Evaporation of micro-liter drops from solid surfaces at room condition is mainly governed by diffusion. Therefore, there should be no difference between evaporation rate of sessile and pendant drops. However, some studies indicate a difference and explain the difference using buoyancy. The objective here is to reconcile the inconsistency in the literature. For that, first, by comparing two iden...
متن کاملGravity driven current during the coalescence of two sessile drops
Coalescence of liquid drops is critical in many phenomena such as emulsion stability, inkjet printing, and coating applications. For sessile drops on a solid surface, the coalescence process is more complicated than the coalescence of drops suspended in a fluid medium as a result of the coupling of the contact line motions to the fluid flow. In this paper, we use video microscopy to track the e...
متن کاملFootprint geometry and sessile drop resonance.
In this work, we examine experimentally the resonance of a sessile drop with a square footprint (square drop) on a flat plate. Two families of modal behaviors are reported. One family is identified with the modes of sessile drops with circular footprints (circular drop), denoted as "spherical modes." The other family is associated with Faraday waves on a square liquid bath (square Faraday waves...
