TLDR
In this article, approximate solutions for the rate of solution by diffusion of a gas bubble in an undersaturated liquid-gas solution are presented, with the neglect of the translational motion of the bubble.
Abstract
With the neglect of the translational motion of the bubble, approximate solutions may be found for the rate of solution by diffusion of a gas bubble in an undersaturated liquid‐gas solution; approximate solutions are also presented for the rate of growth of a bubble in an oversaturated liquid‐gas solution. The effect of surface tension on the diffusion process is also considered.

Stages of steady diffusion growth of a gas bubble in strongly supersaturated gas-liquid solution

TL;DR: In this article, the diffusion flux of dissolved gas molecules from the surrounding supersaturated solution to the bubble surface is studied, and the condition of flux steadiness is revealed, under the conditions of steadiness of diffusion flux three stages of bubble growth are marked out.

Method for determining diffusion coefficients of slightly soluble gases in liquids

TL;DR: In this article, the CBS-method is described, according to which the diffusion coefficient of a slightly soluble gas in a liquid is calculated from the volume of gas absorbed per unit of time from a gas bubble of constant size.

Measuring absolute blood pressure using microbubbles.

TL;DR: It was found in the work described here, through both simulations and in vitro measurements, that large changes in resonance frequency can occur in phospholipid-coated microbubbles for small blood pressure variations because of the exotic buckling dynamics of phospholIPid monolayers.

Stability of microbubbles prepared by co-axial electrohydrodynamic atomisation

TL;DR: It was concluded that improved stability could be achieved for microbubbles prepared using CEHDA by saturating the collecting fluid with gas and/or maintaining a high concentration of microbubble during collection.

Ultrasound Contrast: Gas Microbubbles in the Vasculature.

TL;DR: Overall, microbubble behavior, stability and in vivo lifetime, bioeffects upon the action of ultrasound and resulting enhancement of drug and gene delivery, as well as targeted imaging are critically dependent on the events of gas exchange between the bubbles and surrounding media, as outlined in this review.

The Dynamics of Cavitation Bubbles

TL;DR: In this paper, three regimes of liquid flow over a body are defined, namely: (a) noncavitating flow, (b) cavitating flow with a relatively small number of cavitation bubbles in the field of flow, and (c) caviting flow with one large cavity about the body.
