Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) of the cadherin and immunoglobulin superfamilies mediate cell–cell adhesion by engaging in homophilic and heterophilic interactions and, therefore, promote the formation ...

The aim of this paper is to review the current understanding of the adhesion when at least one of the two materials adhering is a polymer. The second material may also be polymeric, but also it may be ...

To understand the effect of processing and co-monomer content on interfacial adhesion, we quantified adhesion levels of bilayers of a polyethylene (PE) with various polypropylenes (PPs) prepared using ...

OLAY, the #1 anti-aging skin care brand with more than 70 years of skin science expertise, is announcing new research at the ...

Intrauterine pathology can be best assessed at the time of hysteroscopy. Operative hysteroscopy also allows the physician to treat any pathology he or she finds. Polyps, fibroids, or congenital ...

The National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) has developed a renewable adhesive that allows for repeated bonding and debonding, and can reset the substrate and adhesive to their original state ...

Scientists at the University of Akron and the University of Pittsburgh have overturned long-held assumptions in new research that finds water can be a help for adhesion. Dr. Ali Dhinojwala, ...

Photosensitive polymer films are commonly utilized as a dielectric layer in microelectronics packaging. The performance of the organic film is determined by the adhesion quality between the polymer ...

Tissue structures are determined by both cell-cell adhesion and cell-matrix adhesion, with the latter describing interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM). The ECM is the ...

Clinging upside down to polished surfaces is simple for geckos, but scientists’ grasp of the underlying forces behind this phenomenal adherence just became murkier. Researchers report that the ...
