0 the process of becoming a liquid or of making something a liquid:
Liquefaction is what happens to loose, wet soil during an earthquake.
Intrapericardial streptokinase may aid in liquefaction of this purulent material allowing percutaneous drainage.
These are the boiling and freezing of a liquid, and the liquefaction of a gas, among others.
Liquefaction and load structures result, because of the density instability in this type of depositional setting.
We surmise that such enzymes are contained in the intraovular vacuoles the exocytosis of which triggers the onset of plug liquefaction.
Liquefaction of the plug correlates with the reduction of disulphide bonds present in the jelly matrix.
In the present study the nature of the substances triggering plug liquefaction was studied.
In this study we investigated the nature of the substances released from the egg and some changes occurring in the plug during liquefaction.
Underground gasification is also considered as is coal liquefaction.
