The work explores the experimental and theoretical aspects of emulsification capability of ultrasound to deliver stable emulsions of sunflower oil in water and meat sausages. In order to determine optimal parameters for direct ultrasonic emulsification of food emulsions, a model was developed based on the stability of emulsion droplets in acoustic cavitation field. The study is further extended to investigate the ultrasound induced changes to the inherent properties of raw materials under the experimental conditions of sono-emulsification.

Microbubble-facilitated sonoporation is a rapid, versatile, and non-viral intracellular delivery technique with potential for clinical and ex vivo cell engineering applications. We developed a micropatterning-based approach to investigate the impact of cell shape on sonoporation efficacy. Cationic microbubbles were employed to enhance sonoporation by binding to the cell membrane electrostatically.

Ultrasound (US) can easily penetrate media with excellent spatial precision corresponding to its wavelength. Naturally, US plays a pivotal role in the echolocation abilities of certain mammals such as bats and dolphins. In addition, medical US generated by transducers interact with tissues via delivering ultrasonic energy in the modes of heat generation, exertion of acoustic radiation force (ARF), and acoustic cavitation.

This study presents an experimental investigation of the influence of MB concentration on the resonance frequency of lipid-coated microbubbles (MBs). Expanding on theoretical models and numerical simulations from previous research, this work experimentally investigates the effect of MB size on the rate of resonance frequency increase with concentration, a phenomenon observed across MBs with two different lipid compositions: propylene glycol (PG) and propylene glycol and glycerol (PGG). Employing a custom-designed ultrasound attenuation measurement setup, we measured the frequency-dependent attenuation of MBs, isolating MBs based on size to generate distinct monodisperse sub-populations for analysis.

Acoustic cavitation is an advanced, eco-friendly oxidation technology effective in removing organic pollutants from water. However, research on its use for degrading phenol, a common and challenging phenolic pollutant, is limited. This study explores the optimal conditions for phenol degradation using acoustic cavitation and assesses its practical application through extensive pilot tests.

The dynamics of acoustic cavitation bubbles hold significant importance in ultrasonic cleaning, biomedicine, and chemistry. Utilizing an in-situ normal pressure bubble generation and observation system that was developed, this study examined the translational behavior of micrometer-scale normal pressure bubble pairs with initial radius ratio of 1:1 and 2:1 under ultrasonic field excitation. A velocity-distance curve was proposed to quantify the secondary Bjerknes forces during various interaction stages of the bubbles.
