Gelation
Definition:
(n.) The process of becoming solid by cooling; a cooling and solidifying.
Example Sentences:
(1) In addition, two semiquantitative tests (erythrocytes-agglutination test (FM-test) and ethanol gelation test (EGT] were included in the study.

(3) At low concentrations of gelactin, the gelatin of actin exhibits a bell-shaped dependency on free calcium ion concentration, being stimulated between pCa 8 and 6 and inhibited at pCa below 5.5, while at high gelactin concentrations the calcium sensitivity of actin gelation is apparently abolished.
(4) While nanograms of the Veillonella and Fusobacterium LPS killed the chick embryos and gelated the Limulus lysates, microgram amounts of the Bacteroides LPS were needed to give positive reaction in the same test systems.

(9) Included are quasielastic light scattering techniques to determine the compressibility moduli of polymer lattices, resonance methods that can be used to measure the shear modulus of weak gels, assays that probe the swelling and contraction of mucin aggregates, and microscope based light scattering techniques to probe gelation within single cells.
(10) We report here that alpha-actinin from striated muscle is an endogenous PtdInsP2-bound protein and that the specific interaction between alpha-actinin and PtdInsP2 regulates the F-actin-gelating activity of alpha-actinin.
