1. To Alkylating and platinum agents is attributed to enhanced repair of cross-links

2. 11 Similarly, in the rubbery state the shear modulus of all polymers depends primarily upon the density of cross-links.

3. Alkylating agents substitute alkyl groups for hydrogen atoms on DNA, resulting in the formation of cross links within the DNA chai …

4. Its absolute value decreases therefore with increasing degrees of tanning, sincev2éq increases with the density of the cross-links in the sample.

5. Phosphated maize starch (phosphated distarch phosphate) is a chemically modified resistant starch derived from high amylose starch by combining chemical treatments to create phosphate cross-links between carbohydrate residues and esterified hydroxyl groups.
