Sentence examples for membrane which increases from inspiring English sources

Instead, pitch is distinguished because of the continuous changes that occur along the length of the basilar membrane, which increases in width and mass and decreases in stiffness from its base near the oval window to its apex.

In the FSHR TMD A575V mutant, the side chain of Val575 covers the hydroxyl group of Tyr553, in the inactive conformation, and protects it from contacting the membrane, which increases the stability of the inactive conformation of the TMD.

Acutely, AII rapidly stimulates insertion of NHE3 into the apical membrane which increases Na+ absorption.

Forces higher than 15 pN can disconnect the actin shaft from the membrane, which increases actin polymerization at the tip.

A strong electric field may open the ionic channels of the cell membrane, which increases the ion exchange between the cytoplasm and the isotonic solution [ 23].

Cell swelling is counteracted by activation of the Ca2+-sensitive potassium channels with subsequent hyperpolarization of the cell membrane, which increases the driving force for Cl– exit.

Our observations are consistent with the hypothesis that the clustering of saturated fatty acids, parts of the GPI anchors attached to PrPSc, increased the amounts of free cholesterol solubilised within the plasma membrane which increased membrane rigidity.

First, the sulfonated structure could increase the overall density of the sulfonic acid groups in the membranes, which increases the number of proton exchange groups participating in the proton transport.

However, a high pressure drop over the membrane lung, which increases with decreasing membrane lung size, is associated with increased hemolysis [23, 24].

Thus, by addition of surfactants at the stationary phase, a release of intracellular and membrane enzyme which increases the extracellular enzyme proportion is detected.

MBRs provide excellent effluent quality with reduced footprint, but their major drawback is membrane fouling which increases maintenance and operating costs.
