Effect of Protein (Bovine Serum Albumin) Content on the Frictional Behaviour of Soft Contact Lenses Using a Dynamic Oscillating Tribometer

Applied Sciences
Proteins can adsorb on the surface of materials, such as soft contact lenses (SCLs), and can affect the hydrophobicity, roughness, and surface properties of the contact lenses (CLs), which, in turn, can influence the friction between the lenses and the ...

Synovial fluid lubrication: The effect of protein interactions on adsorbed and lubricating films [PDF]

, 2015
© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. Synovial fluid lubrication is dependent on protective protein films that form between joint surfaces. Under static conditions surface film formation occurs through adsorption, while under dynamic conditions ...

Bioinspired Self-Assembled 3D Patterned Polymer Textures as Skin Coatings Models : Tribology and Tactile Behavior

, 2020
It is well known that during evolution, specific surface patterns emerged (e.g., on lotus leaves and butterfly wings) endowed with many remarkable surface properties (superhydrophobicity, vibrant structural color, delicate textures, etc.).

The Topology of the Leg Joints of the Beetle Pachnoda marginata (Scarabaeidae, Cetoniinae) and Its Implication for the Tribological Properties

Biomimetics, 2018
Locomotion of walking insects is exceptionally efficient. The function of their leg joints in different movement scenarios depends on their kinematics and contacting conditions between moving parts.

Characterization of the microscopic tribological properties of sandfish (Scincus scincus) scales by atomic force microscopy

Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2018
Lizards of the genus Scincus are widely known under the common name sandfish due to their ability to swim in loose, aeolian sand. Some studies report that this fascinating property of sandfish is accompanied by unique tribological properties of their ...

Biotribology: Studies of the Effects of Biochemical Environments on the Wear and Damage of Articular Cartilage

, 1999
Tribology is the science of interacting surfaces in relative motion. It is specifically concerned with the friction, wear and lubrication of these surfaces.
