To survive, organisms must control the pressure inside them, from the single-cell level to tissues and organs. Measuring these pressures in living cells and tissues in physiological conditions is a ...

Transcapillary flow, which is important for tissue homeostasis, is influenced by the hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressures of capillaries and interstitium. The interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) of ...

Now, MIT engineers have found that this "intercellular" fluid plays a major role in how tissues respond when squeezed, pressed, or physically deformed. Their findings could help scientists understand ...

We will use porous media theory to examine the principles governing fluid flow and mass transfer in the extracellular matrices of the body and show how these principles can be use in tissue ...

The changes in turgor pressure that accompany the mobilisation of sucrose and accumulation of salts by excised disks of storage-root tissue of red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) have been investigated. Disks ...

The single-celled intestinal parasite Giardia lamblia colonizes the upper small intestine by fastening to the microvillus brush border of intestinal cells. But exactly how Giardia attaches itself was ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A new method for the determination of osmotic pressure in appropriate plant tissues is described. This method is based on the observation that ...
