Colloids with a solid continuous phase and liquid as the dispersed phase; gels may be unstable when, due to temperature or other cause, the solid phase liquefies; the resulting colloid is called a sol.

"
4.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 07/01/2009 - "The 2D-DIGE study was based on 28 gels (14 cancer gels and 14 adjacent normal gels), and 732 spots were identified as matching across more than 90% of gels.

" 02/01/2014 - "While mitochondrial trifunctional protein (MTP) subunits were decreased in 2DE gels, immunoblotting identified their overall abundance as being differently dysregulated: in the gastric tumor samples, the MTP-α subunit was decreased, and the MTP-β subunit was increased.

5.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 02/01/2012 - "The gels promoted the accumulation of inflammatory cells such as polymorphonuclear leukocytes, which have the potential to release chemical mediators effective for wound healing, in full-thickness skin wounds in rats and accelerated the healing of the wounds. " 12/15/2012 - "Absorption of simulated wound fluid, resultant rheological properties of gels and efficacy against plated cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were measured and compared.
