Microfluidics enhanced synthesis of micellar nanostructures

Cardiel, Joshua Jeremy2014

… FISPs are obtained by using one point passive microrheology and two point passive microrheology. The rheological properties variation from the original micellar solutions to their corresponding FISPs is associated with the structural evolution from the precursor to FISPs. The formation …

Mechanics and dynamics of living mammalian cytoplasm

Gupta, Satish Kumar, Ph.D. Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyMassachusetts Institute of Technology2017

Passive microrheology, a method of calculating the frequency dependent complex moduli of a viscoelastic material has been widely accepted for systems at thermal equilibrium. However, cytoplasm of a living cell operates far from equilibrium and thus, the applicability of passive microrheology in …

DNA-colloid systems and micro-rheology

Yanagishima, TaikiUniversity of Cambridge2013

… with a view to demonstrating the efficacy of passive particle-tracking methodologies and developing entirely new systems. Chapter 1 introduces the fields of DNA coated colloids (DNACCs) and passive micro-rheology, with a particular fo cus on the challenges of creating an equilibrating DNACC …

Linear and Non-Linear Mechanical Nature of a Living Mammalian Cytoplasm

Gupta, Satish KumarMassachusetts Institute of Technology2021

… part of the thesis, we develop high-frequency passive microrheology, a high-throughput, non-invasive, and inexpensive method to measure the frequency dependent complex moduli of the cytoplasm using the fluctuations of tracer particles. We use a combination of theoretical and experimental …

Bulk and micro-scale rheology of an aging, yield stress fluid, with application to magneto-responsive systems

Rich, Jason PMassachusetts Institute of Technology2012

… molecular scales. The developing sub-field of microrheology, which explicitly examines flow and deformation behavior on microscopic length scales, provides additional clarity to this connection between rheology and microstructure. Aging materials, whose rheological properties evolve over time, …
