Sentence examples for more rigid due from inspiring English sources

On the other hand, the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria is much more rigid due to the presence of a thick peptidoglycan layer, which is superficial to the cell membrane hence a difference in activity observed.

Finally, considering the practical handling of the bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria have the additional advantage of being more rigid, due to the thicker cell wall (Pagan et al. 1999; Samuelson et al. 2002), which thus allows various laboratory procedures without extensive cell lysis (Desvaux et al. 2006).

These extremities, which are not completely visible in the isolated crystal structures due to their intrinsic disorder and flexibility, become more rigid due to a network of interactions between the two proteins when the complex is formed.

Indeed it has been known for several years that the compliance of the tumor and its surrounding stroma are more rigid due to an enhanced deposition of ECM [13].

Unbranched xylan backbones tend to be more rigid due to the increased level of intramolecular hydrogen bonding among the xylose residues, and hence less soluble.

This effect could be the consequence of modifications in the cell wall, which would become shorter, thicker and more rigid due to the accumulation of xyloglucans, to counteract the additional gravitational force [ 66].

These findings are also in agreement with earlier reports indicating that protein polarisation is important in reducing overall structure fluctuations and making the protein structure more rigid [52, 53], due to the fact that electronic polarisation is critical for stabilising hydrogen bonding, which is the dominant interaction in protein secondary structures [54].

Polyelectrolytes are generally more rigid than uncharged polymers due to the fact that the entropic driving force toward coiling and random chain conformations is inhibited by the intramolecular electrostatic repulsion of the charges along the chain backbone resulting in more correlated packing of the intermolecular polymer backbone.

From this behavior one can conclude that in the first stage of the adsorption and self-assembly process the rSgsE layer showed a moderate rigidity, most probably because water is between the initially formed crystalline domains [6,7], and subsequently, the S-layer lattice became even more rigid with increasing mass due to the formation of a solid-like, coherent proteinaceous layer.

Also the waiting period may have reduced the effect of dilatation due to more rigid structures in or around the joint capsule.

The branching functionality of the micelles played an important role in the solubilization process: for copolymers of similar composition, the solubilization capacity and rate were lower for higher generations, presumably due to the more rigid structure of the molecules.
