The phrase "adhesive abilities" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the capacity of a substance or material to stick or bond to surfaces.
Example: "The adhesive abilities of this tape make it ideal for various applications in both home and industrial settings."
Alternatives: "bonding properties" or "sticking capabilities".
Our findings indicated that over-expressed miR-148a significantly reduced tumor cell migration and adhesion, while anti-miR-148a-treated tumor cells showed significantly elevated migratory and adhesive abilities.
Female frogs showed significant worse performance than male in jump height, jump length, and adhesive abilities, so were considered a target reference to design bank slopes based on their vulnerable behavioral capacity.
Previous research had tested geckos' adhesive abilities on dry surfaces, such as smooth glass and rough walls, but they had not investigated how the reptiles react to wet surfaces, which are common in the rainforest environments in which many geckos live.
The adhesive abilities of CCR7-expressing cells were significantly enhanced in response to CCL21/SLC.
We used function blocking antibodies (Yoshida-Noro et al., 1984) in order to abolish the adhesive abilities of Cdh1.
Second, the adhesive abilities of CCR7-expressing cells were significantly enhanced in response to CCL21/SLC, which has never been reported in prior studies.
Hierarchical alumina film with nanowire bunches-on-nanopores (WBOP) morphology presents extremely slippery property which can obtain a sliding angle (SA) as low as 1°, nanowire pyramids-on-nanopores (WPOP) structure shows strongly sticky water adhesion with the adhesive ability to support 15 μL inverted water droplet at most.
The adhesion assay demonstrated an enhanced adhesive ability of CCR7-expressing cells in response to CCL21/SLC, especially in the presence of lymphatic endothelial cells.
To investigate the effect of c-Jun expression on the adhesion and motility of MCF-7 cells, the adhesive ability of MCF-7/c-Jun cells was compared with MCF-7/pCDNA3.1 cells.
"The paper shows that [adhesive capability] might be exaggerated, because geckos experience falls and a necessity to grip a surface like a leaf that requires a much more tenacious adhesion force; the paper shows that in some cases the adhesive ability can be exceeded," Niklas said.
First an adhesion test demonstrated that the SCC9-M cells had a lower adhesive ability than the SCC9 and SCC9-N cells.
