(a.) Heaped, or growing in heaps, or closely compacted clusters.
Example Sentences:
(1) Forty cases of a distinctive acervate epidermal tumour (intra-epidermal epithelioma of Jadassohn) are described.
Coacervate
Definition:
(a.) Raised into a pile; collected into a crowd; heaped.
(v. t.) To heap up; to pile.
Example Sentences:
(1) Polydispersity of PS played a vital role in determining variables at the critical state of phase separation, such as the composition of coacervate (dense) and lean phases.
(2) Increase in the total colloid concentration suppressed coacervation, resulting in a coacervate of higher water content.
(3) Coacervate drops are considered as a primitive form of cooperation of molecules in the course of the origin of the living matter.
(4) Optical diffraction applied to micrographs of coacervated tropoelastin and alpha-elastin show an equatorial repeat around 50 A.
(5) Five kinds of core material and six kinds of coacervation-inducing agent (CIA) were chosen and the encapsulability of each combination was studied.
(6) The structure of the polypentapeptide is one of limited order below 20 degrees C which undergoes an inverse temperature transition to a conformation characterized by a regularly recurring beta-turn at 40 degrees C. The temperature profile for the conformational change is compared to the temperature dependence of elastomeric force of gamma-irradiation cross-linked polypentapeptide coacervate.
(7) Coacervates have been suggested as models for cytoplasm since cytoplasm is also essentially an aqueous phase of water-protein-colloid complexes.
(8) The overall effect of increasing concentration of SLS was to reduce the weight of coacervate formed.
(9) At first EHA was impregnated in wax particles, which were then encapsulated employing the complex coacervation of a gelatin-gum arabic system.
(10) A protein liquid membrane composed of coacervated alpha-elastin, a chemical fragmentation product of the biological elastic fiber protein, functioned as an amphoteric liquid ion-exchange membrane.
(11) The source, preparation, and properties of phase-separated systems such as lipid layers, coacervate droplets, sulphobes, and proteinoid microspheres are reviewed.
(12) The advantages of the coacervate systems over other models for protein binding studies of drugs are discussed.
(13) H-(Ala-Pro-Gly-Gly)n-Val-OMe did not coacervate even at as high a temperature as 100 degrees, and H-(Ala-Pro-Gly-Val-Gly)n-Val-OMe did not coacervate; however, it precipitated irreversibly around 65--70 degrees C. This suggests the critical role of the Val-Pro hydrophobic side chain interaction in coacervation.
(14) Electrophoresis and gelatin adsorption studies revealed that encapsulation by way of simple coacervation by gelatin is caused by the affinity between core and coacervate resulting from gelatin adsorption on the core surface.
(15) Recovery of the product as water-insoluble discrete units required the use of formaldehyde and isopropanol for coacervate denaturation and flocculation, respectively.
(16) Spherical droplets of clofibrate, prepared by a capillary jet method, were encapsulated in gelatin by simpel coacervation, using sodium sulfate as the coacervating agent.
(17) Terbutaline sulphate microcapsules were prepared by coacervation-phase separation induced by solvent evaporation technique.
(18) Yields and equilibrium water contents of complex coacervates from these polymers were measured, and microcapsule forming systems based on this effect were developed as potential prostheses for organ transplantation.
(19) The stability ranges of the coacervates under varying conditions of temperature, pH, salt concentration and concentration of added organic solvent have been investigated with results that suggest a marked sensitivity of elastin conformation to solution conditions.
(20) In complex coacervation method optimal ratio was 0.5:1.
