HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Alberto Stracuzzi from the Institute for Mechanical Systems, ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland have published the paper: Visco- and poroelastic contributions of the zona pellucida to the mechanical response of oocytes, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: The analysis reveals the presence of two distinct timescales roughly separated by three orders of magnitude and associated with a rapid outflow of fluid across the external boundaries and a long-term progressive relaxation of the glycoproteins respectively. The authors illustrate A. Stracuzzi et_al this for the mammalian oocyte, the female germ cell, whose mechanical properties have increasingly been . . .
