To address large discrepancies reported in the literature, viscoelastic properties of gels formed by purified actin filaments have been measured five different techniques and instruments using preparations separately four laboratories. These measurements consistently showed that elastic shear modulus 2 mg/ml F-actin is on order several hundred pascals, depends very strongly length history sample prior to measurement. Shortening with gelsolin mechanical perturbations reduce low values...
The phase behavior and aggregation properties of a triblock copolymer ethylene oxide (EO) propylene (PO), with measured composition (EO)29(PO)40(EO)29, in aqueous solutions containing salt, have been examined using dynamic light scattering, rheological techniques, sedimentation viscosity measurements. is dissolved as unimer at low temperatures forms spherical micelles increasing temperature.

We report on structural properties of PEO−PPO−PEO type triblock block copolymers (Pluronics F127) with special emphasis the effect diblock PEO−PPO impurities ordered gel phase. Commercial F127 polymers contain as received roughly 20% and 80% copolymers. Aqueous solutions used form fcc micellar structure. Copolymers depleted respect to impurity, resulting in a pure copolymer system, bcc micelles within major parts However, close disorder-to-order transition, purified system also forms...
Actin is the major protein of eukaryote peripheral cytoplasm where its mechanical effects could determine cell shape and motility. The properties purified F-actin, whether it a viscoelastic fluid or an elastic solid, have been subject controversy. Mainstream polymer theory predicts that filaments as long those found in F-actin are so interpenetrated to appear immobile measurements over reasonable time with available instrumentation fluidity only be manifest if were shortened.

In addition to synergy endo- exo-lytic enzymes, a lesser known but equally conspicuous occurs among exo-acting, processive cellobiohydrolases (CBHs) such as Cel7A Cel6A from Hypocrea jecorina.
