DOI: 10.1038/srep43713

Abstract: The stickiness of cooked rice is important for eating quality and consumer acceptance. The first molecular understanding of stickiness is obtained from leaching and molecular structural characteristics during cooking. Starch is a highly branched glucose… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d2sm01626e

Abstract: We employ computer simulations to study the dynamics of a self-propelled spherical tracer particle in a viscoelastic medium, made of a long polymer chain. Here, the interplay between viscoelasticity, stickiness, and activity (self-propulsion) brings additional… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Particle and Fibre Toxicology"

DOI: 10.1186/s12989-024-00607-4

Abstract: It is well-known that nanoparticles sediment, diffuse and aggregate when dispersed in a fluid. Once they approach a cell monolayer, depending on the affinity or “stickiness” between cells and nanoparticles, they may adsorb instantaneously, settle… read more here.
