Inhibition of the water diffusion induced by incubation with PCMB at 25, 30 and 37°C was calculated as I = [(Pd control – Pd sample)/Pd control] × 100.
Inhibition of the water diffusion induced by incubation with para-chloro-mercuribenzoic acid (PCMB) at 25, 30 and 37°C was calculated as I = [(Pd control – Pd sample)/Pd control]*100.
Less water crossover can be achieved by reducing the water diffusion or enhancing the back-diffusion through the membrane.
However, the in vivo detectable dimension for labeled cell clusters/tissues in T1ρ-weighted images is limited by the water diffusion-exchange between mesoscopic scale compartments.
The strain rate in Eq. (3) is determined by the deformation induced by water diffusion under a given stress.
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique that provides information on the fiber architecture of the brain by measuring water diffusion.
Diffusion MRI allows us to make inferences on the structural organisation of the brain by mapping water diffusion to white matter microstructure.
The ADC value in biological tissues represents water proton motion, which is mainly determined by both the true water diffusion and capillary perfusion.
This move was triggered by the idea that water diffusion could provide unique information on the functional architecture of tissues, since during their random displacements water molecules probe tissue structure at a microscopic scale (Fig 1).
DWI is routinely used to differentiate the two conditions by showing restricted water diffusion of the high viscosity and cellularity of pus cells in the abscess cavity.
The porosity and saturated permeability of most of the diffusion cell samples were measured to evaluate the correlation of these two variables with tracer matrix diffusion coefficients divided by the free-water diffusion coefficient (Dm/D⁎).
