Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2010 Jul;82(1 Pt 1):013901. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.82.013901. Epub 2010 Jul 8.

Abstract

A recent paper by Zinin [Phys. Rev. E 79, 021910 (2009)] regarding the dynamics of biological cells in an acoustic field draws conclusions that we find open to debate. The present paper examines these conclusions and addresses some findings.
