Selective flow-induced vesicle rupture to sort by membrane mechanical properties

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Angelo Pommella from the Department have published the article: Selective flow-induced vesicle rupture to sort by membrane mechanical properties, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• how: To evaluate the critical capillary numbers CaKc for the five vesicle populations the authors used the literature values for the mechanical properties and measured the excess area Δ in capillary flow | 513163 | DOI 10.1038/srep13163 κb (× 10 SOPC DOPC POPC ) SOPCchol DOPCchol α=σc/KA Δ CaKc (× 10-3) K A experiments (see Methods). For the measurements the authors used flow velocities such that Ca b ≈ 10 3 . . .
