Anisotropic Bulk Viscous String Cosmological Model in a Scalar-Tensor Theory of Gravitation by D. R. K. Reddy, Ch. Purnachandra Rao, T. Vidyasagar, R. Bhuvana Vijaya

“…Spatially homogeneous, anisotropic, and tilted Bianchi type-VI0 model is investigated in a new scalar-tensor theory of gravitation proposed by Saez and Ballester (1986) when the source for energy momentum tensor is a bulk viscous fluid containing one-dimensional cosmic strings. Exact solution of the highly nonlinear field equations is obtained using the following plausible physical conditions: (i) scalar expansion of the space-time which is proportional to the shear scalar, (ii) the barotropic equations of state for pressure and energy density, and (iii) a special law of variation for Hubble’s parameter proposed by Berman (1983). …”

Lysosphingolipids in ceramide-deficient skin lipid models by Georgios Paraskevopoulos, Lukáš Opálka, Andrej Kováčik, Anna Paraskevopoulou, Eleni Panoutsopoulou, Irene Sagrafena, Petra Pullmannová, Robert Čáp, Kateřina Vávrová

“…When applied topically to human stratum corneum sheets, SPC and GS increased water loss, decreased electrical impedance, and slightly disordered lipid chains. In lipid models containing isolated human stratum corneum ceramides, reducing ceramides by ≥ 30% significantly increased permeability to four markers, likely due to loss of long-periodicity phase (LPP) lamellae and phase separation within the lipid matrix, as revealed by X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. …”
