Cosy


Definition:

  • (a.) See Cozy.

Example Sentences:

  • (10) Analyses of the through-bond and through-space connectivities in the alpha H-NH fingerprint regions of the correlated spectroscopy (COSY) and nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) spectra lead to the assignment of resonances to specific amino acid residues in the polypeptide.
  • (11) Its structure was elucidated by IR, UV, FAB-MS, and various NMR spectra (including NOE, BBD, INEPT, SR, COSY, NOESY etc.
  • (12) 155, 311-319], individual spin systems were identified by J-correlated spectroscopy (COSY) supplemented, where necessary, by relayed coherence transfer spectroscopy (RELAY).
  • (13) The spin systems of the 79 amino acids were identified by DQF-COSY and HOHAHA spectra in H2O and D2O.
  • (14) In addition, two-dimensional 1H[1H] J-correlated spectroscopy (COSY) experiments as well as theoretical ring-current calculations have confirmed the spectral assignments obtained by the one-dimensional NOE experiments.
  • (15) When all four fractions consisting of A, B fractions, factor I, and SV40 infected CosI cytoplasm were mixed together, the system was reconstituted, meaning that initiation and subsequent elongation were completed to generate the full sized daughter molecules.
  • (16) Honor & Folly ( honorandfolly.com , one bedroom $165 a night, both bedrooms $215, plus a sofabed for children) is a home away from home with a fully stocked kitchen and a cosy living area decorated with vintage and locally crafted furniture.
  • (17) Both David Cameron and Nick Clegg, the deputy prime minister, also posed with a copy of the Sun, but many Labour supporters have pointed out the inconsistency between Miliband's tough stance on the need for a public inquiry into phone hacking with cosying up to the newspaper.
  • (18) The current labour system in this country, with its cosy series of meetings in which all the people concerned know and understand each other, is over.
  • (19) Two-dimensional scalar correlated spectroscopy (COSY), two-dimensional dipolar correlated spectroscopy (NOESY) and two-dimensional relayed coherance transfer spectroscopy (RCT) experiments were recorded, allowing most resonances arising from the aromatic and methyl-containing residues to be assigned in the spectrum.
  • (20) The structure determination was based upon spectroscopic analysis (UV, IR, CD, MS, 1HNMR, 13CNMR, COSY) and derivative preparation.

Posy


Definition:

  • (n.) A brief poetical sentiment; hence, any brief sentiment, motto, or legend; especially, one inscribed on a ring.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The stock isn't fantastic but I spy books by Jane Gardam and Claire Messud, David Mitchell and, er, Jordan, and it's impressive that a library so small has a section devoted to graphic novels, Gemma Bovery by Posy Simmonds and David Boring by Daniel Clowes in pride of place.
