Scratching the surface of the protein corona: Challenging measurements and controversies

…, J Robert, G De Crescenzo, DC Boffito, VA Martinez… - ACS …, 2022 - ACS Publications
This Review aims to provide a systematic analysis of the literature regarding ongoing
debates in protein corona research. Our goal is to portray the current understanding of two …

Differential dynamic microscopy of bacterial motility

LG Wilson, VA Martinez, J Schwarz-Linek, J Tailleur… - Physical review …, 2011 - APS
We demonstrate a method for the fast, high-throughput characterization of the dynamics of
active particles. Specifically, we measure the swimming speed distribution and motile cell …

Flagellated bacterial motility in polymer solutions

VA Martinez, J Schwarz-Linek… - Proceedings of the …, 2014 - National Acad Sciences
It is widely believed that the swimming speed, v, of many flagellated bacteria is a nonmonotonic
function of the concentration, c, of high-molecular-weight linear polymers in aqueous …

[PDF][PDF] Differential dynamic microscopy: A high-throughput method for characterizing the motility of microorganisms

VA Martinez, R Besseling, OA Croze, J Tailleur… - Biophysical journal, 2012 - cell.com
We present a fast, high-throughput method for characterizing the motility of microorganisms
in three dimensions based on standard imaging microscopy. Instead of tracking individual …

[HTML][HTML] Painting with light-powered bacteria

J Arlt, VA Martinez, A Dawson, T Pilizota… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
Self-assembly is a promising route for micro- and nano-fabrication with potential to revolutionise
many areas of technology, including personalised medicine. Here we demonstrate that …

Escherichia coli as a model active colloid: A practical introduction

…, T Vissers, D Miroli, T Pilizota, VA Martinez… - Colloids and Surfaces B …, 2016 - Elsevier
The flagellated bacterium Escherichia coli is increasingly used experimentally as a self-propelled
swimmer. To obtain meaningful, quantitative results that are comparable between …

Enhanced diffusion of nonswimmers in a three-dimensional bath of motile bacteria

A Jepson, VA Martinez, J Schwarz-Linek, A Morozov… - Physical Review E, 2013 - APS
We show, using differential dynamic microscopy, that the diffusivity of nonmotile cells in a
three-dimensional (3D) population of motile E. coli is enhanced by an amount proportional to …

Probing the spatiotemporal dynamics of catalytic Janus particles with single-particle tracking and differential dynamic microscopy

…, J Arlt, T Franosch, WCK Poon, VA Martinez… - Physical review …, 2018 - APS
We demonstrate differential dynamic microscopy and particle tracking for the characterization
of the spatiotemporal behavior of active Janus colloids in terms of the intermediate …

Differential dynamic microscopy for anisotropic colloidal dynamics

M Reufer, VA Martinez, P Schurtenberger, WCK Poon - Langmuir, 2012 - ACS Publications
Differential dynamic microscopy (DDM) is a low-cost, high-throughput technique recently
developed for characterizing the isotropic diffusion of spherical colloids using white-light optical …

Filling an emulsion drop with motile bacteria

…, EJ Marsden, J Schwarz-Linek, VA Martinez… - Physical review …, 2014 - APS
We have measured the spatial distribution of motile Escherichia coli inside spherical water
droplets emulsified in oil. At low cell concentrations, the cell density peaks at the water-oil …
