Example Sentences:
(1) "Most technologies have their bright and dark side," he replies, buoyantly.
(2) Synchrony was documented by nuclear staining and fluorescence microscopy, and by determining the variation of the buoyant density of the cells during outgrowth.
(3) The nuclear membranes were found to have a higher buoyant density and to be richer in protein.
(4) We have therefore termed this production of buoyant LDL in the Lpb 5.1 pigs direct buoyant LDL production.
(5) The chimeric plasmid was selected and amplified in vivo by sequential transformation of E. COLI C with the ligated mixture, selection of transformants in medium containing streptomycin plus colicin E1, followed by amplification in the presence of chloramphenicol and purification of the extracted plasmid by dye-buoyant density gradient centrifugation in ethidium bromide-CsCl solution.
(6) Examination of total cell lysates by dye-buoyant density gradient centrifugation revealed the presence of covalently closed circular DNA from cells grown at 37 degrees C, but none was obtained from cells grown at 30 degrees C. Thus, possible interference by large amounts of extrachromosomal DNA in the determination of the chromosomal segregation pattern is unlikely.
(7) The increased plasma LDL in the hypercholesterolemic pigs was confined to a buoyant LDL subspecies.
(8) Regression analysis showed that there have been systematic errors involved in the estimation of guanine plus cytosine (GC) content by the chemical method, and that the relation between buoyant density and base composition is indeed linear and best fitted by the equation GC = 10.309 (rho-1.662), which compares well in slope with the equation of Schildkraut, Marmur, and Doty.
(9) We have examined the effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 on T-cell populations isolated by buoyant density and E rosetting from human tonsils.
(10) The buoyant density of the DNA component which contains the polypyrimidines was detected by centrifuging native DNA to equilibrium in a CsCl gradient, and then assaying each fraction for its content of polypyrimidines.
(11) This approach, when combined with electron microscopy and buoyant density determinations, appears capable of localizing individual polypeptides in some of the viral and subviral forms.
(12) Mouse satellite DNA sequences isolated by centrifugation in CS2SO4--Ag+ gradients are analyzed for buoyant density by CSCl density gradients and for their content of fast reassociating sequences by denaturation and partial reassociation.
(13) Formaldehyde-treated cells showed DNA with lower buoyant density due to proteinase K sensitive DNA-protein cross-linking; this effect was not observed after treatment with either platinum compound.
(14) Internet search advertising is set to remain buoyant, with a tasty 25% growth rate.
(15) The CsCl-buoyant density data allows us to estimate that 108 mol of CMC are bound per mol of SV40 DNA I.
(16) The controversy concerning the relationship between platelet buoyant density and platelet age is unresolved.
(17) Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) attached to pig kidney cells at 0 degrees C and could only be recovered in a form with a sedimentation coefficient and buoyant density lower than that of the native virus.
(18) In characterizing the plasmid species from strains UT0002 and UT0003, the 21S but little or no 56S plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid could be isolated after centrifugation of cleared lysates from these strains on dye-buoyant density gradients.
(19) Services and manufacturing have been the main drivers of growth according to official data, but the BCC warned that the buoyant outlook concealed long-term challenges.
(20) Because of their intrinsic low buoyant density, chitosomes can be separated from crude cell homogenates (1000 g or 35,000 g supernatants) of Mucor rouxii by isopycnic sedimentation in sucrose density gradients.
