AbstractWe have observed in muscle the statistical mechanics of irreversible chemical thermodynamics, revealing the solution to multiple seemingly unrelated paradoxes in science. Analogous to Boltzmann's H theorem, we observe that chemical reaction energy landscapes (ensemble entropic wells) irreversibly evolve over time, pulling reversible chemical reactions forward in time.

Section snippetsSignificanceMultiple particle tracking (MPT) is a microscopy technique that uses nanoparticle trajectory tracking to perform microrheological characterization of biological environments, including the vitreous of the eye, mucosal membranes, intracellular environments, and the brain extracellular space. MPT can generate gigabytes of data and is a prime candidate to benefit from advancements in machine learning and artificial intelligence to extract deeper insights.
