hydrophilicity

Hydrophilicity is indicated by smaller contact angles and higher surface energy.

Important factors are charge, hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity, size, and functional groups.

For instance, surface hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of a material can be altered.

There are not sections of strong hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity.

Due to its high hydrophilicity, this protein definitely does not contain transmembrane segments.

However they have improved hydrophilicity and can be used for oral and intravenous administration.

Polylysine was selected because of its positive nature and high hydrophilicity, which promotes neurite growth.

The increased charge increases the hydrophilicity of gliadins causing them to stretch out in solution.

By extended storage in the dark, water is replaced by oxygen and hydrophilicity is once again lost.

Phthalocyanine was chosen because its hydrophilicity and strong cytotoxicity induced when associated with cellular membrane.

In most membrane separation processes (especially bioseparations), higher surface hydrophilicity corresponds to the lower fouling.

The logarithm of these two values enables compounds to be ranked in terms of hydrophilicity (or hydrophobicity).

This coating acts to clean the window in two stages, using two distinct properties: photocatalysis and hydrophilicity.

Glutamic acid and lysine both are charged, which contributes to the overall hydrophilicity of the section after the conserved domain.

In general, toxic peptides of 10-40 amino acids have been found to have a relatively poor bioavailability due to their size and hydrophilicity.

Hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of membrane surfaces can be expressed in terms of water (liquid) contact angle θ.

This application exploits the similar ionic radii and hydrophilicity of perchlorate and iodide.

The roughness of a surface can affect the hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of the contacting substance, which in turn affects its ability to adhere.

Extensin hydroxyproline is uniquely glycosylated with short chains of L-arabinose that further rigidify and increase hydrophilicity.

Collagen has the correct properties for tissue regeneration such as pore structure, permeability, hydrophilicity and it is stable in vivo.

As a result of their hydrophilicity, charged amino acids tend to be located on the outside of proteins, where they are able to interact with surfaces.

Graft formation improves the overall hydrophilicity of the material through a ratio of how much glycolic acid and lactic acid is added.

About a decade ago, another hydrophilicity scale was published, this scale used normal phase liquid chromatography and showed the retention of 121 peptides on an amide-80 column.

Hydrophilicity profiles of the gene product of each Cpn 1054 family member was determined using hydropathy plot analysis ( [ 22 ] MacVector ).

The plot has amino acid sequence of a protein on its x-axis, and degree of hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity on its y-axis.
