    • And 10 years later he used freezing point depressions to determine the molecular weights of colloids such as gum, Fe 3 etc.
    • This increase in cytoplasmic viscosity can be described as a sol-gel transition, which is generally explained with chemical or physical reactions of molecules, polymers, or colloids.
    • In lyophobic colloids the particle-solvent interaction is energetically unfavorable and the suspension will sooner or later separate.
