IMMUNOCYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF THE WALL INGROWTHS IN THE DIGESTIVE GLAND TRANSFER CELLS IN ALDROVANDA VESICULOSA L. (DROSERACEAE)

Carnivorous plants are unique due to their ability to attract small animals or protozoa, retain them in specialized traps, digest them, and absorb nutrients from the dissolved prey material; however, to this end, these plants need a special secretion-digestive system (glands).A common trait of the digestive glands of carnivorous plants is the prese

Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) is extensively utilized for point-of-care testing due to its ease of operation, cost-effectiveness, and swift results.This study investigates the flow dynamics and reaction mechanisms in LFIA by developing a three-dimensional model using the Richards equation and porous media transport, and employing numerical simula
