WATER AT SURFACES. "Water at a hydrophobic surface loses a hydrogen bond, therefore had increased enthalpy. Water molecules compensate for this by doing pressure-volume work, that is, the network expands to form low-density water with lower entropy. Water covers the surface with clathrate-like pentagons in partial dodecahedra, so avoiding the loss of most of the hydrogen bonds." https://lnkd.in/e7guwhy View in LinkedIn

EVENT CLOAKING. "Non-emitting events occurring during a restricted period are never suspected by a distant observer. The cloak works by locally manipulating the speed of light of an initially uniform light distribution, whilst the light rays themselves always follow straight paths." https://lnkd.in/eK3bFYi View in LinkedIn

REACTIVE WATER. "Proteins are most stable when they are surrounded by fully hydrogen-bonded water molecules, as water molecules with spare hydrogen bonding capacity have higher entropy and are more aggressive. Such reactive water behaves in a similar way to raising the temperature and is the cause of the denaturing behavior of proteins in heating." https://lnkd.in/eSbeYHN View in LinkedIn

RIBOSOMES. "Highly structured water molecules with lengthy residence times, have been found to be essential for the structural dynamics and function of ribosomes...where water communicates structural rearrangements in an analogous manner to its action around many proteins." https://lnkd.in/ekqUhp2 View in LinkedIn

WATER AROUND DNA. "The hydration spine is capable of carrying messages as facilitated by proton movement down the water wire, between binding sites in a similar, if complementary, manner to high electron transfer through DNA residues, and so coordinate the repair process." https://lnkd.in/ekqUhp2 View in LinkedIn
