For many years the determination of the shear viscosity of interfacial layers has been source
of strong controversy. This is mainly because different techniques provided different values …

The aggregation of therapeutic proteins is potentially encountered during various steps such
as bioprocessing, formulation, storage, transportation and administration. The aggregation …

Crystallization is an attractive alternative for protein-based therapeutic formulations since the
crystalline form offers improved stability, longer storage lifetime, and enables controlled …

Fluid interfaces significantly influence the dynamics of protein solutions, effects that can be
isolated by performing experiments in microgravity, greatly reducing the amount of solid …

The influence of hydrodynamics on protein fibrillization kinetics is relevant to biophysics,
biochemical reactors, medicine, and disease. This investigation focused on the effects of …

Although the Classical Nucleation Theory (CNT) is the most consensual theory to explain
protein nucleation mechanisms, experimental observations during the shear-induced …

Although half a century has passed since the mapping of the insulin structure, this globular
protein is still currently being investigated. Crystalline drug formulations might replace the …

This paper quantifies the effect of interfacial viscosity on the translational speed of a drop in
Stokes flow. In the limit of negligible droplet deformation and surface concentration …

Abstract Development of experimental methods for in situ particle tracking velocimetry (PTV)
is fundamental for allowing measurement of moving systems non-tailored for velocimetry …

As an attempt to take into account the mechanical role of oxide films at the liquid surface of
melted or liquid metal flows, a model is proposed based on a Boussinesq-Scriven law …
