Journal ArticleDOI
Differential dynamic microscopy of bacterial motility.
Laurence G. Wilson,Vincent A. Martinez,Jana Schwarz-Linek,Julien Tailleur,Gary Bryant,Peter Pusey,Wilson C. K. Poon +6 more
TL;DR: This work measures the swimming speed distribution and motile cell fraction in Escherichia coli suspensions and finds that the diffusivity of nonmotile cells is enhanced in proportion to the concentration of motile cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sperm navigation along helical paths in 3D chemoattractant landscapes.
Jan F. Jikeli,Luis Alvarez,Benjamin M. Friedrich,Laurence G. Wilson,René Pascal,Remy Colin,Magdalena Pichlo,Andreas Rennhack,Christoph Brenker,U. Benjamin Kaupp +9 more
TL;DR: This work tracks sea urchin sperm navigating in 3D chemoattractant gradients using holographic microscopy and optochemical techniques and provides a conceptual and technical framework for studying microswimmers in3D chemical landscapes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flagellated bacterial motility in polymer solutions
Vincent A. Martinez,Jana Schwarz-Linek,Mathias Reufer,Laurence G. Wilson,Alexander Morozov,Wilson C. K. Poon +5 more
TL;DR: The current standard model of how bacteria propelled by rotary helical flagella swim through concentrated polymer solutions postulates bacteria-sized pores, allowing them relative easy passage is overturned, and clear evidence for non-Newtonian effects in the highest-molecular-weight PVP solution is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential dynamic microscopy: a high-throughput method for characterizing the motility of microorganisms.
Vincent A. Martinez,Rut Besseling,Ottavio A. Croze,Julien Tailleur,Mathias Reufer,Jana Schwarz-Linek,Laurence G. Wilson,Laurence G. Wilson,Martin A. Bees,Wilson C. K. Poon +9 more
TL;DR: A fast, high-throughput method for characterizing the motility of microorganisms in three dimensions based on standard imaging microscopy by analyzing the spatiotemporal fluctuations of the intensity in the sample from time-lapse images and obtaining the intermediate scattering function of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Small-world rheology: an introduction to probe-based active microrheology.
TL;DR: Active, probe-based microrheological techniques for measuring the flow and deformation of complex fluids are introduced and recent results are reviewed, paying particular attention to comparing and contrasting rheological parameters obtained from micro- and macro-rheological Techniques.
