How can you use “fluidity” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The finding of higher proportions of the high melting saturated fatty acids and lesser amounts of the PUFA with lower melting points in the red cell phospholipids of the SCD subjects relative to the controls prompted us to asses the overall impact of these differences on the relative fluidity of the acyl chains of the phospholipids from the red cells of the SCD patients and the controls by estimating the MMP of the phospholipids using the approach of Jensen and Patton [ 20 ] . The calculated MMP of the SCD subjects was significantly higher than for the controls, 29°C vs 24°C, p < 0.001.
The fatty acid composition of serum phospholipids is known to reflect the phospholipid composition of cell membranes [ 10 ] . Because the fatty acid composition of membrane phospholipids is a major determinant of membrane fluidity and function [ 11 ] , any alteration in fatty acid composition of membrane phospholipids could contribute to the red cell abnormalities seen in SCD, such as cation imbalance, dehydration, reduced deformability and hypercoagulability [ 12 13 ] .
Overall, in the SCD children we studied, cell membrane components that are known to decrease membrane fluidity, such as cholesterol and saturated fatty acids, were associated with a low phase angle while those which increase fluidity, such as long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, were associated with a high phase angle.
Documentarian Joseph Dorman is credited with producing "one of the deepest portraits ever filmed of the fluidity of ideas" (Stephen Holden, the New York Times ).
Not only will the efficiency of the system permit rock-bottom pricing that discourages cheating, but the fluidity of content will disrupt channels of potential cheating.
