Explants from the midbrain dopamine system and striatum are used in a collagen matrix assay for the in vitro analysis of mesostriatal and striatonigral pathway development. In this assay axonal outgrowth and guidance can be manipulated and quantified. It can also be modified for assessing other regions or molecular cues.

Here, we present a protocol to quantify allergen-loaded particles by flow cytometry. Ambient particulate matter particles may act as carriers of adsorbed allergens. We show here that flow cytometry, a method widely used to characterize suspended solids >0.5 µm in diameter, can be used to measure these allergen-loaded particles.

Extracellular vesicles play important roles in physiological and pathological processes, including coagulation, immune responses, and cancer or as potential therapeutic agents in drug delivery or regenerative medicine. This protocol presents methods for the quantification and size characterization of isolated and non-isolated extracellular vesicles in various fluids using tunable resistive pulse sensing.
FAQs
Rotation changes the relative fluid velocity around opposite sides of a moving object. This produces unequal flow speeds and corresponding pressure differences, so the resulting force acts perpendicular to the object’s direction of motion rather than directly along it. In engineering analysis, that directional change is essential for predicting lateral movement, lift, and altered trajectories.
The pressure difference converts unequal flow conditions into a measurable force on the rotating object. Its direction is perpendicular to the motion, which means it can change a body’s path or contribute to lift without simply increasing or decreasing forward travel. Accounting for this force helps engineers build more reliable fluid-dynamics models for moving objects.
The effect depends on the interaction between object rotation, translational motion, and the surrounding fluid. Changing the rotation or the direction of movement changes the relative fluid velocity and therefore the pressure imbalance around the object. Engineering studies consider these relationships in both air and water when evaluating trajectory, stability, or expected system performance.
Engineers can incorporate the lateral force into analyses of rotating balls and projectiles to explain why their paths deviate from a straight trajectory. The force acts perpendicular to motion, allowing rotation to influence direction as the object travels. Such analysis supports predictions of trajectory and provides a practical way to connect fluid behavior with observed motion.
A basic analysis identifies the object’s translational motion and rotation, determines how those motions alter relative fluid velocity, and evaluates the resulting unequal pressures. Engineers then interpret the perpendicular force in terms of lift, trajectory, or stability. The same workflow can support fluid-dynamics models for objects moving through air or water.
Applications include analyzing the motion of spinning balls and projectiles, designing spinning rotors and aerodynamic devices, and controlling vehicles or mechanical components. In each case, engineers use the rotation-induced force to evaluate or influence motion. The principle also helps assess system performance and stability when a component moves through air or water.
