Bubbles act as a water/air interface. The lipid membrane of a cell is a wall that has an internal hydrophobic layer made of phospholipids. Phospholipids when introduced to a water/air interface orient their hydrophobic side into the air, away from water. In other words the bubble rips the cell membrane apart by pulling phospholipids out of the membrane.

Ain’t that the truth.

You know what’s worse for bioprocessing than sticky cells? Bubbles. The article implies this solves everything, when in reality it works on an edge case. Mammalian cells, and most cells lacking a tough outer wall, would never tolerate bubbles.

Cool, now I can flip a virtual table when my friend invades my territory.

Ho ho. That international ride-share line is already a shitshow. Imagine it with two Wamos each waiting for the other to move.
