The impact of size on particle drainage dynamics and antibody response by Simon Zinkhan (14214245)

“…<p dir="ltr">Vaccine-induced immune response can be greatly enhanced by mimicking pathogen properties. The size and the repetitive geometric shape of virus-like particles (VLPs) influence their immunogenicity by facilitating drainage to secondary lymphoid organs and enhancing interaction with and activation of B cells and innate humoral immune components. …”

Simulation of the size-composition distribution of atmospheric nanoparticles over Europe by David Patoulias (4722960)

“…The condensation of organics led to an increase (50 %–120 %) in the N100 concentration mainly in central and northern Europe, while the N10 concentration decreased by 10 %–30 %. …”

Optimum sizing of steam turbines for concentrated solar power plants by Poullikkas, Andreas

“…The results indicate that the estimated efficiency and the expected specific capital cost of the power block are very important criteria in choosing the best steam turbine size of a CSP plant. For capacity sizes of 10kWe up to 50MWe, the steam turbine efficiency increases and the steam turbine expected specific capital cost of the power block decreases at a high rate, whereas for larger sizes they remain almost constant. …”

Increasing knowledge to restore oyster beds and related services in the Arabian-Persian Gulf by Bruno Welter Giraldes (6655352)

“…For instance, resident standing stocks in the southwestern ecoregion would be ideal for an aquaculture initiative; juveniles might be collected after the summer; lower regional salinity (42ppt) might increase the animal sizes in an aquaculture basis; shallow areas near seagrasses might be ideal coastal areas for reintroduction; vertical hard substrates (e.g. artificial reefs) might be used for juvenile’s reintroduction. …”

Experimental study of the influence of particle size on Minimum Explosible Concentration of sulfur dust by Jack M. Altwal (17302843)

“…The use of the Modified Hartmann Tube for MEC determination showed that the MEC increases with increasing particle size in the particle size range of 0–2000 μm. …”

Impaired Liver Size and Compromised Neurobehavioral Activity are Elicited by Chitosan Nanoparticles in the Zebrafish Embryo Model by Haissam Abou-Saleh (497840)

“…Although no single sign of cardiotoxicity was observed upon exposure to 200 mg/L of ChNPs, as judged by heartbeat rate, the corrected QT interval (QTc, which measures the time between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave in the heart's electrical cycle), maximum cardiac arrest, and ejection fraction assays, the same dosage elicited the impairment of both liver size (decreased liver size, but without steatosis and lipid yolk retention) and neurobehavioral activity (increased movement under different light conditions). …”
