A superior deformability was attained without the use of a bond breaker.
The on-chip glass microtubes serve as an easily controllable tool to mechanically manipulate single cells and to test the maximum deformability of their nuclei without grossly perturbing the integrity of their DNA.
In the group of patients without anaemia, where erythrocyte deformability was also impaired, no such correlation was found.
These alloys exhibit low elastic modulus (50 GPa) and very large deformability (>100% plastic strain) at room temperature without appearance of any microcracks.
In 2 of these patients the administration of a prostaglandin-synthesis inhibitor (indomethacin) evoked a deformability, which was even better than during periods without fever.
Consequently also the amplitude of deformation will increase by increasing the corneal deformability.
Self-consolidating concrete is characterized by its high deformability or its capability of filling all the spaces without external forces, maintaining the stability, without segregation or blocking.
More recently, others have also suggested, without detailed thermodynamic quantification, that base unstacking and deformability of DNA due to lesions may be important in the initial recognition by repair proteins.
Deformability or flowability is the ability of SCC to flow or deform under its own weight (with or without obstructions).
This osteosarcoma cell nucleus deformation was explained as a reflection of the increased flexibility and deformability of cancer cells28,29.
