Lamellar slippage of bilayers - A hypothesis on low friction of natural joints
Pawlak, Zenon; Urbaniak, Wiesław; Hagner-Derengowska, Magdalena; Hagner, Wojciech (AVS: Science & Technology of Materials, Interfaces, and Processing, 2014-12-11)The cartilage’s amphoteric surface behavior is a physical phenomenon in biological lubrication. However, there is a lack of knowledge on amphoteric phospholipids bilayers and in overcoming friction in cartilage joints. In ... -
Relationship between wettability and lubrication characteristics of the surfaces of contacting phospholipid-based membranes
Pawlak, Zenon; Petelska, Aneta D.; Urbaniak, Wiesław; Yusuf, Kehinde Q.; Oloyede, Adekunle (Springer-Verlag, 2013)The wettability of the articular surface of cartilage depends on the condition of its surface active phospholipid overlay, which is structured as multi-bilayer. Based on a hypothesis that the surface of cartilage facilitates ...
