The films were assessed for glucose release in vitro, swelling and disintegration times, and mucoadhesive ability.
To evaluate the potential use in food packaging applications, the barrier performance to water, thermoforming ability and disintegration in controlled composting conditions of the composites were also studied.
Its antibacterial activity is due to the ability of cell membrane disintegration, internal penetration, and destruction of intracellular organelles.
To examine the effect of treatments on the sphere forming ability of PC cells (pancreatosphere) and disintegration of pancreatospheres, we conducted sphere disintegration assay for 10 days to generate the formation of pancreatospheres, followed by 5 days of drug treatment.
In order to keep the weight of the car to a minimum, some of the energy absorbing devices are also required to perform a structural function in addition to their ability to absorb energy by controlled disintegration.
But industrial carnage is the only way to describe the devastation done to the U.S. economy by an accumulated trillion dollar trade deficit with China, the destruction of U.S. jobs by off-shoring them to China, and the disintegration of the U.S. industrial sector that is foreclosing America's ability to support itself or to manufacture weapons to defend itself.
Grill et al. [ 315] further showed by optically induced centrosome disintegration that there are no specific force-generating cortical regions illustrating the ability of the system to self-organize.
The increase of initial water content can obviously strengthen the resistance ability of soil aggregates on rainfall and runoff erosion, reducing the degree of disintegration of aggregates.
In addition, disintegration and passage of the ingested food matrix through the gastrointestinal tract can also critically impact the colonisation ability and the composition of the probiotic intestinal microbiota (Cook, Tzortzis, Charalampopoulos, & Khutoryanskiy, 2012).
