The presence of a minimum is commonly attributed to surface-active impurities. |
|
However, the mechanisms promoting transformation of these compact particles into surface-active components is still poorly understood. |
|
An important case of adsorption on liquid surfaces is that of surface-active or surfactant molecules at the water-air or water-oil interface. |
|
Our isotherm results demonstrate that P188 is a highly surface-active copolymer. |
|
This will then allow observing directly the structure-function relationship of pulmonary surfactant and any other surface-active substance. |
|
The method might also prove highly valuable for the investigation of surface-active substances other than pulmonary surfactant. |
|
Upon separation, the surfactants lose all surface-active behavior. |
|
It has been shown that such interdigitated lamellar phases are formed with soluble surface-active molecules that interact with the polar headgroups of the lipids. |
|
Such specific interactions may lead to formation of highly surface-active lipid-protein complexes as well as sorting of lipids at the lung air-water interface. |
|
Whether it is possible to accomplish these objectives using biocompatible, biodegradable, surface-active formulations remains to be determined. |
|
Soluble surface-active cationic substances, which have bactericidal effect, remain. |
|
At the beginning, it is not to better use additives of baths, and especially not of surface-active synthetic. |
|
Unfortunately, flocs also collect metals and other surface-active contaminants. |
|
Such juvenescent films form when the evaporation of water is prevented and that of a minor but highly surface-active component is favored. |
|
These aerosol particles are mainly comprised of organic matter, produced by plankton and are concentrated at the ocean surface due to its surface-active properties. |
|
On the other hand, a haphazard increase in surface tension or selection of a surface-active material with undesirable biological effects could have dangerous consequences. |
|
For example, changes induced in the capacitance relaxation parameters have been used to help characterize the interaction of surface-active molecules with bilayers. |
|
Bacillus subtilis synthesizes surfactin, a powerful surface-active agent. |
|
His Master's research was supervised by Professor Adrian L. Schwan and involved synthesising robust surface-active analogues of natural pulmonary phospholipids for treating acute respiratory distress syndrome. |
|
In low concentrations, surface-active compounds behave innocuously. |
|
|
Made by traditional standards in a cauldron, with natural glycerin, this soap dispenser contains neither coloring agents, animal fats, nor surface-active agents. |
|
Element abundances vary in natural waters according to the solubility of their source minerals and the availability of surface-active particulates, which remove solutes from solution by adsorption or chemical complexation. |
|
Another purpose of surface-active and disperging agents or glycols is to improve wettability of pigments, ensure compatibility with the most diverse types of paint materials and prevent their drying-out. |
|
Oil wetted surfaces are protected against rusting through the use of an effective surface-active rust prevention additive which forms a barrier against water. |
