1. Methods are described for measuring the stickiness of cells to solid surfaces. 2. The effect of various factors such as temperature, serum concentration, sodium chloride concentration, etc., on the adhesiveness of leucocytes to solid surfaces and the phagocytosis of solid particles are compared, and certain marked differences pointed out. 3. On account of these differences it is concluded th...

Abstract The texture profile analysis test is an imitative to determine properties of food, which quantify the consumer’s perception eating food. instrumental parameters obtained from this depend on specimen size and nonstandardized conditions. To overcome problem, are here related intrinsic mechanical properties, independent Two types materials used investigate effect viscoelasticity, plastici...

BACKGROUND Platelets play an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. It is also noticed that on one hand, regular exercise can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and on the other hand, vigorous exercise provokes sudden cardiac death. We therefore hypothesize that various intensities of exercise may affect platelet function differently. METHODS AND RESULTS Stren...

the main purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of air drying, freeze drying and vacuum drying methods on viscosity and gelation of lipidium perfoliatum seed gum. results showed that the viscosity values of samples varied from 0.31 to 1.26 pa.s at (shear rate = 12.23 s-1) and control sample gum exhibited the highest viscosity. apparent viscosity was decreased by all of drying...

Cells of FL strain and primary human amnion cultures have been exposed to high hydrostatic pressure, and their ultrastructure has been observed following pressure release. Pressure treatment reveals a high degree of intercellular adhesiveness in primary amnion characterized by the formation of intercellular "bridges." Electron micrographs of these cells reveal well defined desmosomes associated...
