From: Continuous Isotropic-Nematic Transition in Amyloid Fibril Suspensions Driven by Thermophoresis
Temporal evolution of the concentration profile of a 0.5% w/w sample, at an average temperature of 17.8 °C in the presence of a temperature gradient of 20 °C/mm. (a) The colours represent local fibrils concentration, the plane shows the concentration at which the nominal transition between I and N under quiescent conditions is expected, and the black continuous line shows the corresponding position in the channel versus time, separating I and N phases under quiescent conditions. (b) Two-dimensional concentration profiles at different times. The black dashed line corresponds to the critical fibril concentration for the nominal I-N phase transition under quiescent conditions.
