The position of lysine controls the catechol-mediated surface adhesion and cohesion in underwater mussel adhesion. Journal of Colloid and Interface Science , 2020; 563: 168 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis ...

The tissue in our body can only hold together if the cells adhere not only to each other, but also to extracellular ...

This is the cohesion force at work. Adhesion is the H2O’s attraction to other surfaces, (in a plant’s case, its cellulose walls of its Xylem tissue).

Adhesion is any attraction process between dissimilar molecular species that can potentially bring them in close contact. By contrast, cohesion takes place between similar molecules. Adhesion is ...

Hyung Joon Cha and his research team identified a mechanism of adhesive proteins in a mussel that controls the surface adhesion and cohesion. They substantiated the synergy of molecules in ...
