I'm excited to share our latest research, featured on the front cover of February's "Biotechnology and Bioengineering"! 🧵 Article: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… PDF (free): onlinelibrary.wiley.com/shar…
The cover image is based on the article "Elucidating the effects of microbubble pinch-off dynamics on mammalian cell viability" by Oliver McRae et al. It shows a rendered zoomed in region of a bioreactor where newly formed bubbles are surrounded by both viable and non-viable mammalian cells.

Ruptured air bubbles in a colloidal water solution act like particle scavengers and remove both small and large particles by ejecting them in small water droplets at the tips of broken water jets Letter: go.aps.org/3HAh1eO Focus: go.aps.org/3JJpcIN
