The brain depends on a constant supply of oxygen, delivered through an intricate network of tiny blood vessels. Unlike other organs, it has little energy stored and is particularly sensitive to ...

The study of dynamic capillary pressure has substantially enhanced our understanding of two-phase flow in porous media by challenging the traditional assumption that capillary pressure is solely a ...

Researchers used a two-photon phosphorescent probe to monitor capillary flux and oxygen in sets of capillaries, obtaining a robust oxygen and flux estimate within each capillary, sufficient to observe ...

Researchers discover that capillary obstruction in diabetes, triggered by elevated interleukin-10 signaling, may contribute to cognitive deficits independent of blood sugar levels. Study: A pathogenic ...

A new method for imaging blood circulation and the flow within blood vessels could lead to faster and more precise assessments of capillary dynamics. In particular it should help the understanding of ...

Have you ever spilled coffee on a solid surface such as the floor, table or clothing? Most of us have had the experience, but if you have not, or if you are curious, spill just a drop and let it dry ...
