(The diagram gives, however, no indication of the hydrostatic pressure due to the liquid in the manometer tube, which is a necessary condition for equilibrium. For further details of the experiments Loeb's original papers and book s may be consulted.) AH and BH represent hydrogen electrodes; AK and BK, calomel electrodes connected to the solutions by saturated KC1. Loeb measured the potential d...

Lacunes are small deep infarcts which cavitate, producing “lacunes” (French for lake).1 “Lacunar infarcts” have been thought of as strokes caused by intrinsic disease of small vessels called lipohyalinosis, resulting from hypertension2 and diabetes.3 Contrary to this established dogma, the literature demonstrates that emboli are the cause of lacunes. Almost all of the histopathological evaluati...

Measurements were made of electromotive force in the Donnan equilibrium of systems containing dilute solutions of protein and acid. Removal of the membrane produced a decrease of no more than 2 to 4 mv. in electromotive force, while the membrane potentials, as estimated by the usual arbitrary assumption, were of the order of 12 to 34 mv. Ion ratios, as calculated from analyses for total chlorid...

We study the swelling of a flexible linear chain composed of active particles by analytical theory and computer simulation. Three different situations are considered: a free chain, a chain confined to an external harmonic trap, and a chain dragged at one end. First, we consider an ideal chain with harmonic springs and no excluded volume between the monomers. The Rouse model of polymers is gener...

A modified expression for the change in chemical potential of a solvent, in a polymer network, due to isotropic swelling was obtained by substituting a non-Gaussian chain length probability distribution in Flory’s statistical analysis of rubber elasticity. The affine non-Gaussian expression for the free energy change due to elastic deformation was compared to both the traditional Flory and the ...

The author carries out numerical simulations of vesicle formation based on the density functional theory for block copolymer solutions. It is shown by solving the time evolution equations for concentrations that a polymer vesicle is spontaneously formed from the homogeneous state. The vesicle formation mechanism obtained by this simulation agrees with the results of other simulations based on t...
