In vivo efficacy of the formulations was evaluated in Swiss albino mice by means of measurement of the duration of immobility and activity counts in the animals using a forced swim apparatus.
Here, adhesion and molecular interaction mechanisms of Mytilus californianus foot protein-1 (mcfp-1) from California blue mussel were investigated using a surface forces apparatus (SFA) in buffer solutions of different ionic concentrations (0.2 0.7 M) and pHs (3.0 5.5).
We used a surface forces apparatus (SFA) to investigate the drainage of thin films of undecanol from a pore consisting of two atomically smooth mica sheets.
Using self-assembled monolayer (SAMs) of known physical and chemical properties on molecularly smooth gold substrates in 5 mM NaCl at pH 7.3, (1) the adsorption mechanisms of the barnacle inspired peptides are explored using quartz crystal microbalance, and (2) adhesion mediating properties are measured using the surface force apparatus.
Forelimb grip strength was measured in grams of resistance using a digital force-gauging apparatus (Animal Grip Strength System; San Diego Instruments, San Diego, CA, USA).
For these reasons, in the present study, orthodontic adhesives were applied directly to the enamel surfaces using a special apparatus and shear force was directed at the composite enamel interfaces until fracture occurred.
This type of surface-induced ordering can for instance be measured using the surface force apparatus (e.g., [44]).
In the context of complex fluids, precise measurements between extended and curved surfaces have been done using the Surface Force Apparatus (SFA) [1 3].
In this study, the mechano-coupling function of vinculin and its domains were examined using a high-force magnetic tweezer apparatus with force feedback control.
Forced spirometry and static pulmonary volume measurements were performed using a MasterLab apparatus (MasterLab; Jaeger; Würzburg, Germany).
