TEM tomography of pores with application to computational nanoscale flows in nanoporous silicon nitride (NPN) (2018)
Journal Article
Madejski, G., Lucas, K., Pascut, F. C., Webb, K. F., & McGrath, J. L. (2018). TEM tomography of pores with application to computational nanoscale flows in nanoporous silicon nitride (NPN). Membranes, 8(2), Article 26. https://doi.org/10.3390/membranes8020026

Silicon nanomembrane technologies (NPN, pnc-Si, and others) have been used commercially as electron microscopy (EM) substrates, and as filters with nanometer-resolution size cut-offs. Combined with EM, these materials provide a platform for catching... Read More about TEM tomography of pores with application to computational nanoscale flows in nanoporous silicon nitride (NPN).

Rapid one-step biotinylation of biological and non-biological surfaces (2018)
Journal Article
Henry, S., Williams, E., Barr, K., Korchagina, E., Tuzikov, A., Ilyushina, N., …Bovin, N. (2018). Rapid one-step biotinylation of biological and non-biological surfaces. Scientific Reports, 8(1), Article 2845. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-21186-3

We describe a rapid one-step method to biotinylate virtually any biological or non-biological surface. Contacting a solution of biotin-spacer-lipid constructs with a surface will form a coating within seconds on non-biological surfaces or within minu...

Dynamic functional contribution of the water channel AQP5 to the water permeability of peripheral lens fiber cells (2018)
Journal Article
Petrova, R. S., Webb, K. F., Vaghefi, E., Walker, K., Schey, K. L., & Donaldson, P. J. (2018). Dynamic functional contribution of the water channel AQP5 to the water permeability of peripheral lens fiber cells. American Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 314(2), C191-C201. https://doi.org/10.1152/ajpcell.00214.2017

Although the functionality of the lens water channels aquaporin 1 (AQP1; epithelium) and AQP0 (fiber cells) is well established, less is known about the role of AQP5 in the lens. Since in other tissues AQP5 functions as a regulated water channel with...
