Sentence examples for impeded diffusion from inspiring English sources

Impeded diffusion in tumours occurs if tumour cells can proliferate and form their typical tumour microenvironment.

Using multiple particle tracking, we found that sputum strongly impeded diffusion of AAV, regardless of serotype, by adhesive interactions and steric obstruction.

The two major factors for impeded diffusion as estimated by the lowest values of ADCdiff are the severely reduced intracellular space (due to more organelles and larger nuclei) and extracellular space (due to high proliferation rate) in viable tumour tissue.

The latter was probably due to impeded diffusion of reactants to the SiNW base caused by the longer diffusion lengths (SiNW lengths were longer for χ = 0.95 and 0.98) and depletion of H2O2 in the etching solution.

These factors result in a gradually decreasing etch rate over time, with re-nucleated Ag-catalyzed etching being dominant for low χ values and impeded diffusion being more pronounced for high χ values.

However, these treatments can result in non-homogenous and/or inefficient expression of therapeutic proteins in vivo due to impeded diffusion and dilution of the inducer further from the injection site.

The chapter further discusses the generic issues, specific characteristics of the sites of innovation, and approaches impeding diffusion.

The hydrophobic treatment which is necessary to improve the water management can impede diffusion and thus reduce the power density.

It is obvious that such an environment impedes diffusion and enables selective binding of morphogens during their transport on extracellular matrix [78].

The gellike biofilm matrix may be quite unimportant in impeding diffusion in certain circumstances, because of the detailed consequences of the diffusion law in special geometries.

In flowering plant, a cuticle is present on the surface of the embryo proper (Rodkiewicz et al. 1994; Lackie and Yeung 1996) and this can impede diffusion of nutrients into the embryo.
