Classical biochemistry is founded on several assumptions valid in dilute aqueous solutions
that are often extended without question to the interior milieu of intact cells. In the first section …

As myofibrils consist of a three-dimensional network of long, solid protein particles with the
shortest dimension of less than 20nm, the theoretical foundations of water-holding in meat …

Optimum protein function and biochemical activity critically depends on water availability
because solvent thermodynamics drive protein folding and macromolecular interactions …

Functional neuroimaging has emerged as an important approach to study the brain and the
mind. Surprisingly, although they are based on radically different physical approaches both …

The behaviour of water at mosaic hydrophilic/hydrophobic surfaces of different silicas and in
biosystems (biomacromolecules, yeast cells, wheat seeds, bone and muscular tissues) was …

Organisms show a remarkable range of sizes, yet the dimensions of a single cell rarely
exceed 100 µm. While the physical and biological origins of this constraint remain poorly …

Encapsulating proteins in polymeric microspheres is a useful mode of drug delivery, but the
proteins are subjected to damage in the process of ultrasound emulsion …

We identify water-soluble (23° C) crude oil NSO nonvolatile acidic, basic, and neutral crude
oil hydrocarbons by negative-ion ESI and continuous flow FD FT-ICR MS at an average …

Exposure of tumours to anti‐cancer drugs, gene or radiation therapy consistently leads to an
increase in water diffusion in the cases expressing favourable treatment response. The …

Microwave exposure under “athermal” conditions occurs when no temperature rise can be
measured by conventional thermometry. The existence of biological effects arising from the …
