Microstructural and biochemical characterization of the nanoporous sucker rings from dosidicus gigas
The individual toothed sucker rings of squid tentacles (highlighted in blue) provide additional gripping power during prey capture and handling. These rings comprise a nanoscale network of parallel tubular elements, as shown in the background image. The structural, mechanical, and biochemical proper...
