(1) The permeability property of a seed coat should be related to its structure.(2) The coefficient of permeability remains constant during consolidation.(3) To derive unitary permeability coefficients, however, a slightly different method is required.(4) Generally, solute permeability decreases as the reflection coefficient increases.(5) Compaction reduces the permeability of the soil and increases its shear strength and bearing capacity.(6) Pesticide movement is affected by soil texture, permeability , and organic matter content.(7) In other words, the permeability barrier is selectively transparent for transporter proteins.(8) One potential consequence of increased intestinal permeability is microbial translocation.(9) He calculated that a material that had a negative permittivity and a negative permeability would also have a negative refractive index.(10) But a more fundamental issue was the gas permeability of the polymer.(11) High concentrations did not significantly affect the permeability of acetone.(12) Animal studies have shown it to be of benefit in decreasing vascular permeability and improving vascular tone and blood flow.(13) Two of the five participants had abnormally high permeability; the intestinal permeability of all five decreased.(14) The rapid chloride permeability test meets these goals.(15) A model is presented to relate intracellular lifetime to true membrane diffusional permeability .(16) Texture affects permeability , or the ability of soils to drain water.
