Article Title: Formation of Nano-emulsions by Low-Energy Emulsification Methods at Constant Temperature
Article Snippet: Formation of nano-emulsions has been studied in the system water/Brij 30/decane at 25 °C by three low-energy emulsification methods: (A) stepwise addition of oil to a water-surfactant mixture, (B) stepwise addition of water to a solution of the surfactant in oil, and (C) mixing all the components in the final composition.. Nano-emulsions with average droplet size of 50 nm and high kinetic stability have been obtained only at oil weight fractions, R, lower than 0.3 by emulsification method B.. Independent of the oil weight fraction, R, emulsions obtained by method B have lower polydispersity than those obtained by methods A and C. Phase behavior studies have revealed that compositions giving rise to nano-emulsions consist of Wm, (O/W microemulsion), LR (lamellar liquid crystalline), and O (oil) phases, at equilibrium.

Article Title: Single-cell profiling of muscle-infiltrating T cells in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies.
Article Snippet: Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are rare autoimmune systemic diseases characterized by muscle weakness and the presence of muscle-infiltrating T cells.. IIM represent a clinical challenge due to heterogeneity of symptoms and variability of response to immunosuppressive treatment.. Here, we performed in-depth single-cell sequencing on muscle-infiltrating T cells and peripheral blood memory T cells in six patients with recently diagnosed IIM.

Article Title: Nanoporous laminates
Article Snippet: Sample size was about 10 cm×10 cm with a thickness of about 1.5 mm. (b) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Measurements A Brucker apparatus operating at 250 MHz was used to determine 1H— and 13C-NMR spectra. (c) Thermogravimetry Analysis (TGA) A DuPont apparatus TGA V5.1A was used to determine the weight loss of modified epoxy resins from ambient temperature to 300° C. (d) Optical Microscopy 100 μm thin sections were prepared with a rotating diamond saw. .. The sections were studied with a LEICA POLYVAR 2 light microscope operating with transmitted light and differential interference contrast according Nomarski. .. Images were captured with a Polaroid DMC digital camera. (e) Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) A glass fiber free epoxy area was sectioned perpendicular to the glass bundles with a LEICA ULTRACUT E ultramicrotome using a 45 degrees diamond knife.
