Extracting local surface charges and charge regulation behavior from atomic force microscopy measurements at heterogeneous solid-electrolyte interfaces
TL;DR: A systematic method to extract the equilibrium constants of these reactions by simultaneous least-squared fitting to experimental data for various salt concentrations is developed and is shown to yield highly consistent results for silica-electrolyte interfaces.

Fate and transport of microorganisms in air.
Gary S. Brown,Alan Jeff Mohr +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the most significant environmental factors influencing viability are RH, solar irradiance, temperature, and oxygen concentration, while their fate is dependent upon the specific biological composition, chemical makeup, and the meteorological parameters to which they are exposed.

Repulsive Forces and Relaxation on Compression of Entangled, Polydisperse Polystyrene Brushes
TL;DR: In this article, the interaction forces between high molecular weight polystyrene brushes (Mn = (0.7−1.2) × 106 g/mol), formed by radical chain polymerization from an initiator chemically bound to silica (quartz-glass) substrates, were measured with a surface forces apparatus.

Characterization of the surface charge distribution on kaolinite particles using high resolution atomic force microscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used dynamic atomic force microscopy (AFM) to determine the distribution of surface charge on the two (gibbsite-like and silica-like) basal planes of kaolinite nanoparticles immersed in aqueous electrolyte with a lateral resolution of approximately 30 nm.

Thin Film Rheology and Tribology of Chocolate
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated relations between food texture and thin film properties rather than bulk properties and found that very complex thin film behavior was found to be quite different for the three samples and that fat constitution and average particle size were important in determining the type of friction forces generated between shearing/sliding surfaces separated by thin films of chocolate.
