چکیده

New model equations are derived for dynamics of self-aggregation of finite-size particles. Differences from standard Debye-Hückel [1] and Keller-Segel [2] models are: a) the mobility μ of particles depends on the locally-averaged particle density and b) linear diffusion acts on that locally-averaged particle density. The cases both with and without diffusion are considered here. Surprisingly, these simple modifications of standard models allow progress in the analytical description of evolution as well as the complete analysis of stationary states. When

Finite Element Simulation of Contact Mechanics of Cancer Cells in Manipulation Based on Atomic Force Microscopy

The theory of contact mechanics deals with stresses and deformations which arise when the surfaces of two solid bodies are brought into contact. In elastic deformation contact occurs over a finite area. A regular method for determining the dimensions of this area is Hertz Contact Model. Appearance of atomic force microscope results in introduction of Contact ...

First passage times in homogeneous nucleation: Dependence on the total number of particles.

Motivated by nucleation and molecular aggregation in physical, chemical, and biological settings, we present an extension to a thorough analysis of the stochastic self-assembly of a fixed number of identical particles in a finite volume. We study the statistics of times required for maximal clusters to be completed, starting from a pure-monomeric particle configuration. For finite volumes, we e...

We developed biofunctionalized nanoparticles with magnetic properties by immobalizing diethyle-neglycol (DEG) on Gd2O3, and PEGilation of small particulate gadolinium oxide (SPGO) with two me-thoxy-polyethyleneglycol-silane (mPEG-Silane 550 and 2000 Da) using a new supervised polyol route, described recently. In conjunction to the previous study to achieve a high quality synthesis and increase ...
