The phrase "altered surface of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing changes or modifications to a surface, such as in scientific, artistic, or engineering discussions.
Example: "The altered surface of the material improved its adhesion properties significantly."
Alternatives: "modified surface of" or "changed surface of".
Our feeling is that, since the concept of soil chiefly bases on the occurrence of weathering and internal differentiation – both induced by biotic and/or abiotic processes – in an incoherent mass of mineral matter, the clearly altered surfaces of Venus, Mars, and our moon deserve the rank of soils.
The majority of ceramides were predicted to negatively modulate TLR4 surface expression, similar to studies reporting that accumulation of ceramides at the plasma membrane led to altered surface expression of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (Gallegos et al., 2008).
Plasma-deposited thin films were developed and altered surface characteristics of restorative materials, maintaining the materials color and adequate surface roughness potentially working as a protective barrier.
Jurkat cell lines were examined by flow cytometry to determine if the GBV-C NS5A peptides altered surface expression of HIV co-receptors CXCR4 and CCR5.
The ultrastructural basis for the altered surface distribution of clathrin assemblies in clone 1.E cells can be appreciated in deep-etch EM replicas.
The effect of altering surface functionalisation of nanodiamonds on hNSC adhesion and proliferation has shown that confluent cellular attachment occurs on oxygen terminated nanodiamonds (O NDs), but not on hydrogen terminated nanodiamonds (H NDs).
Urban development has altered surface-water hydrology of landscapes and created urban heat island effects.
The use of polymeric coatings can also lead to other key benefits, such as increasing circulation time, improving bioavailability of encapsulated drug, increasing targeting efficiency, and altering surface charge of the liposomes [49].
Ionic liquids (ILs), salts melting below 100 °C, are considered to be able to alter surface behavior of surfactant molecules, hence supporting the surfactant performance at the interface.
Thus, FimA stimulation does not alter surface expression of TLR2 in PBMCs.
