| These results were similar to previously reported values for polystyrene and showed high hydrophobicity. |
| The researchers found that beta-peptides showed similar trends, with decreases in hydrophobicity leading to greater selectivity for bacterial cells. |
| This is a significant drawback because the dependency of intermembrane transfer on lipid hydrophobicity is a very useful criterion when assessing the mechanism of transfer. |
| The amount of dimer that exists in organic solvents often increases with increasing solvent hydrophobicity. |
| The role of these structures in determining spore hydrophobicity, adhesion, dispersal, and resistance to environment stresses is poorly understood. |
| Bacterial affinity for the host cell is known to be influenced by cell surface hydrophobicity. |
