Article Abstract
We report experimental investigations on the influence of various optical effects on the far-field scattering pattern produced by a cloud of optical bubbles near the critical scattering angle. Among the effects considered, there is the change of the relative refractive index of the bubbles (gas bubbles or some liquid-liquid droplets), the influence of intensity gradients induced by the laser beam intensity profile and by the spatial filtering of the collection optics, the coherent and multiple scattering effects occurring for densely packed bubbles, and the tilt angle of spheroidal optical bubbles. The results obtained herein are thought to be fundamental for the development of future works to model these effects and for the extension of the range of applicability of an inverse technique (referenced herein as the critical angle refractometry and sizing technique), which is used to determine the size distribution and composition of bubbly flows.

Phase-shift droplets undergoing acoustic droplet vaporization (ADV) offer a promising approach for ultrasound-mediated drug delivery, enabling the spatiotemporally controlled release of therapeutic payloads. A comprehensive understanding of their behavior, through both optical and acoustic methods, is essential for optimizing the therapeutic efficacy. In this study, we investigated the effects of driving pressure, pulse duration, and bulk boiling point of perfluorocarbon droplets on ADV dynamics, payload release, and acoustic emissions.

Purpose: To investigate the impact of donor diabetes mellitus on donor corneal tissue in organ culture on graft preparation, surgical outcomes, and graft survival.
Methods: Retrospective comparison of 273 eyes (218 patients) undergoing DMEK, divided into 2 subgroups [0: donor without diabetes (n = 210); D: donor with diabetes (n = 63)]. The data of visual acuity (VA), central corneal thickness (CCT) and endothelial cell count (ECC), and intra- and postoperative complications were collected.

Synechococcus HS-9 is being recognized as one of the potential strains for biodiesel production due to its high levels of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME), which are around 70-78%. The first stage in producing microalgae biodiesel involves the biomass production process through a photobioreactor cultivation process. In addition to microalgae strains, the optimization of the photobioreactor's performance is essential for producing high biomass.
