The FSL construct by nature of its composition in possessing both hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions are hydrophobicity / hydrophilicity for each FSL construct type.
12.
The plot has amino acid sequence of a protein on its x-axis, and degree of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity on its y-axis.
13.
Unlike the fibroin dimer of Lepidoptera, Trichoptera dimers are not escorted by a P25 protein, likely due to the increased hydrophilicity of trichopteran fibroin unnecessary.
14.
Chemical modification of starch by grafting various monomers onto it imparts increased hydrophilicity, hydrophobicity or polyelectrolyte nature to starch depending on the reagent and conditions used.
15.
Oxidizing the PDMS surface does generate hydrophilic anti-fouling properties, but the low glass transition temperature allows for surface reconstruction via internal rearrangement : destroying hydrophilicity.
16.
High hydrophilicity of this surfactant can be explained by the fact that it forms very strong hydrogen bonds with water : the energy of DDAO-water hydrogen bond is about 50 kJ / mol.
17.
The modification can be done by different methods with a view to altering a wide range of characteristics of the surface, such as : roughness, hydrophilicity, surface charge, surface energy, biocompatibility and reactivity.
18.
Given the amino acid sequence of any protein, likely interaction sites can be identified by taking the moving average of six amino acid hydrophilicity values along the polypeptide chain, and looking for local peaks in the data plot.
19.
There may be a variety of poorly understood situations in which transfer of water from tissue matrix to lymphatics is impaired because of changes in the hydrophilicity of the tissue or failure of the'wicking'function of terminal lymphatic capillaries.
20.
Membrane surface chemistry creates very important properties such as hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity ( related to surface free energy ), presence of ionic charge, membrane chemical or thermal resistance, binding affinity for particles in a solution, and biocompatibility ( in case of bioseparations ).
