6.5 Medical and Biological Applications

Oral

In the past several decades, to understand the fast propagation behavior of nonequilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma jets (N-APPJs), many simulations have been reported. It is believed that photoionization plays key role for such behavior. In all the simulation model, it is either assumed that high energy photons are emitted by N2 in the wavelength range 98–102.5 nm, which induce the...

6.5 Medical and Biological Applications

Oral

The Hodgkin-Huxley equations [1] have long been used to assess membrane current and its impact on conduction and excitation in nerves for action potential initiation and propagation by modeling the ion channels as parallel combinations of voltage and voltage-dependent conductance that yield a set of nonlinear differential equations. Applying sufficiently intense electric pulses (EPs) create...

Microalgae have become an important resource for blue-green biotechnologies. In addition to their potential for biofuel production, microalgae comprise also valuable metabolites for pharmaceutical and nutritional purposes, such as fatty acids, proteins, carbohydrates, and pigments. However, microalgae are distinguished by a sturdy cell wall, which affords a remarkable mechanical and chemical...

633. A MULTILAYER STRUCTURE OF COMPRESSED WATER FLOW GENERATED BY RE-STRIKE IN UNDERWATER ELECTRICAL WIRE EXPLOSION

Underwater electrical wire explosion (UEWE) has attracted the attention of researchers in the field of warm dense matter physics and applied physics in the past several decades. Current pause is a common phenomenon in UEWE, however, the physical process of the re-strike in UEWE is still not very clear till now due to the difficulty of direct diagnostics, so is the formation mechanism of the...
