Investigation of the effects of codeposition of tin on the suppression of hydrogen evolution in nickel electrodeposition system by Tan, Ronald Teck Ee

“…Regardless of PEG or MSA addition, the non-adherent deposit remained unsolved. Adding sulphuric acid to the solution was proposed for future experiment and investigation as it may eliminate the issue of non-adherent deposits, therefore allowing the continuation of the investigation of the effects of co-depositing tin on hydrogen suppression.…”

Simultaneous polymerization and adhesion under hypoxia in sickle cell disease by Papageorgiou, Dimitrios P., Abidi, Sabia Z., Chang, Hung-Yu, Li, Xuejin, Kato, Gregory J., Karniadakis, George E., Suresh, Subra, Dao, Ming

“…We show that (i) hypoxia significantly enhances sickle RBC adherence; (ii) HbS polymerization enhances sickle cell adherence in SRs and SMEs, but not in ISCs; (iii) SRs exhibit unique adhesion dynamics where HbS fiber projections growing outward from the cell surface create multiple sites of adhesion; and (iv) polymerization stimulates adhesion and vice versa, thereby establishing the bidirectional coupling between the two processes. …”
