Recovery of the rod photoresponse in infants.

TL;DR: Results are evidence that the kinetics of deactivation in infants are slower and may be set by the proportion of rhodopsin isomerized, and the recovery time was significantly longer in infants than in adults.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fractional hereditariness of lipid membranes: Instabilities and linearized evolution.

TL;DR: In this work lipid ordering phase changes arising in planar membrane bilayers is investigated both accounting for elasticity alone and for effective viscoelastic response of such assemblies, which falls in the framework of Fractional Hereditariness.

Nanotechnology: a promising approach for cosmetics

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the nanotechnologies used in the cosmetic industry is presented, which provides an overview of current activity in this area and provides a survey of the current state of the art.

Binding of Lipid Vesicles to Protein-Coated Solid Polymer Surfaces: A Model for Cell Adhesion to Artificial Biocompatible Materials

TL;DR: The adhesion of lipid vesicles (liposomes) having controlled chemical and physical structure to polymer supported human serum albumin (HSA) thin layers was investigated by a spectrofluorimetric technique and showed a dramatic lowering of the adhesion capability under hydrodynamic flow.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanobiology predicts raft formations triggered by ligand-receptor activity across the cell membrane

TL;DR: A multiphysics approach based on the interplay among energetics, multiscale geometrical changes and mass balance of species, i.e. active GPCRs and MRPs, including diffusion and kinetics of binding and unbinding is developed.
