L'embossage est une technique de mouillage qui consiste à ajouter un mouillage à l'arrière du bateau en plus de l'ancre principale à l'avant. Cette méthode permet de maintenir le bateau dans son axe, en particulier dans des zones où il est impossible d'éviter, comme les fleuves. L'embossage est souvent utilisé lorsque le bateau est très proche des côtes ou lorsque les environs sont encombrés. 5, record 1, French, - mouillage%20emboss%C3%A9

Une autre possibilité (dans la technique du transfert thérapeutique de gènes) consiste à insérer dans la protéine de l'enveloppe virale un ligand qui reconnaît un composé de la matrice extracellulaire entourant la cellule cible. Cette technique dite «d'ancrage» permet de concentrer le vecteur à proximité de la cellule; la liaison entre la protéine de l'enveloppe virale et le récepteur cellulaire peut alors avoir lieu naturellement. 1, record 3, French, - technique%20d%27ancrage
