ABSTRACT A two-phase cultivation system was developed which will enable studies of streptomycete differentiation by molecular biological and global techniques such as transcriptomics and proteomics. The system is based on a solid phase formed by glass beads corresponding to particles in soil, clay, or sand natural habitats of streptomycetes. The beads are immersed in a liquid medium that allows easy modification or replacement of nutrients and growth factors as well as radioactive labeling of proteins. Scanning electron microscopy was used to analyze morphological differentiation of streptomycetes on glass beads and two-dimensional protein electrophoresis to demonstrate the potential of the system for analyses of protein synthesis profiles during the developmental program. This system facilitates studies of differentiation including expression and posttranslation modifications of streptomycetes proteins, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, and morphological development.

The influence of the gas flow rate and vibration intensity in the presence of the solid phase (polypropylene spheres) on axial mixing of the liquid phase in a three phase (gas-liquid-solid) Karr reciprocating plate column (RPC) was investigated. Assuming that the dispersionmodel of liquid flow could be used for the real situation inside the column, the dispersion coefficient of the liquid phase was determined as a function of different operating parameters. For a two-phase liquid-solid RPC the following correlation was derived: DL = 1.26(Af)1.42 UL 0.51 ?S 0.23 and a similar equation could be applied with ? 30 % confidence for the calculation of axial dispersion in the case of a three-phase RPC: DL = 1.39(Af)0.47 UL0.42UG0.03 ?S -0.26.

A gel can be considered to be a two-phase (liquid and solid) system, which lacks flow once it reaches a stationary state. The solid phase is usually a tridimensional polymeric mesh, while the liquid phase is usually found in three forms: contained in great cavities, retained in the capillary pores between micelles, or adsorbed on the surface of a micelle. The influence of the use of gels in crystal growth is diverse and depends on the type of gel being used. A decrease in solubility of any solute in the liquid may occur if the solvent interacts extensively with the polymeric section, hence, the nucleation in gels in these cases apparently occurs at relatively low supersaturations. However, if the pore size is small enough, there is a possibility that a higher supersaturation is needed, due to the compartmentalization of solvents. Finally, this may also represent an effect in the diffusion of substances. This review is divided into three main parts; the first evaluates the theory and practice used for the obtainment of polymorphs. The second part describes the use of gels into crystallogenesis of different substances. The last part is related to the particularities of protein crystal polymorphism, as well as modern trends in gel growth for high-resolution X-ray crystallography.

This paper reports on a research program of modeling multi-phase granular flow. Both single-phase granular flow and two-phase liquid/granular flow in a pressure vessel were considered. For the latter case, detailed results based on a viscous/Mohr-Coulomb closure were compared to existing formulations. Idealized test cases indicated that the numerical procedure is sound. Subsequent simulations of two-phase flow using realistic geometries and boundary conditions showed that the pressure distribution in the solid phase is fundamentally different for the Mohr-Coulomb system than for the conventional system. The effect of the angle of internal friction, geometry, and other parameters is discussed. [S0094-9930(00)01204-X]

The compatibility of solid phase–liquid medium appears to be an important factor for controlling the electrorheological (ER) efficiency of ER fluids. Controlled protonation of polyaniline particles with perfluorooctanesulfonic, tartaric, or sulphamic acid provides particles in a broad range of hydrophobicity as a suitable model to study this phenomenon. The relation between organization of such particles in silicone oil suspensions in on/off electric field at rest and during flow at various volume concentrations was demonstrated.
