Modified Kedem-Katchalsky equations for osmosis through nano-pore
This work presents a modified Kedem-Katchalsky equations for osmosis through
nano-pore. osmotic reflection coefficient of a solute was found to be chiefly
affected by the entrance of the pore while filtration reflection coefficient
can be affected by both the entrance and the internal structure of the pore.
Using an analytical method, we get the quantitative relationship between
osmotic reflection coefficient and the molecule size. The model is verified by
comparing the theoretical results with the reported experimental data of
aquaporin osmosis. Our work is expected to pave the way for a better
understanding of osmosis in bio-system and to give us new ideas in designing
new membranes with better performance.Comment: 19 pages, 4 figure

Spatiotemporal transcriptomic atlas of mouse organogenesis using DNA nanoball-patterned arrays.
Spatially resolved transcriptomic technologies are promising tools to study complex biological processes such as mammalian embryogenesis. However, the imbalance between resolution, gene capture, and field of view of current methodologies precludes their systematic application to analyze relatively large and three-dimensional mid- and late-gestation embryos. Here, we combined DNA nanoball (DNB)-patterned arrays and in situ RNA capture to create spatial enhanced resolution omics-sequencing (Stereo-seq). We applied Stereo-seq to generate the mouse organogenesis spatiotemporal transcriptomic atlas (MOSTA), which maps with single-cell resolution and high sensitivity the kinetics and directionality of transcriptional variation during mouse organogenesis. We used this information to gain insight into the molecular basis of spatial cell heterogeneity and cell fate specification in developing tissues such as the dorsal midbrain. Our panoramic atlas will facilitate in-depth investigation of longstanding questions concerning normal and abnormal mammalian development.This work is part of the ‘‘SpatioTemporal Omics Consortium’’ (STOC) paper package.
