Crude


Definition:

  • (superl.) In its natural state; not cooked or prepared by fire or heat; undressed; not altered, refined, or prepared for use by any artificial process; raw; as, crude flesh.
  • (superl.) Unripe; not mature or perfect; immature.
  • (superl.) Not reduced to order or form; unfinished; not arranged or prepared; ill-considered; immature.
  • (superl.) Undigested; unconcocted; not brought into a form to give nourishment.

  • (superl.) Harsh and offensive, as a color; tawdry or in bad taste, as a combination of colors, or any design or work of art.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Life expectancy and the infant mortality rate are considered more useful from an operational perspective and for comparisons than is the crude death rate because they are not influenced by age structure.
  • (2) While the reduced form of the "derived" polyphenolic compounds, generated during tissue homogenization, appeared to enhance dye binding with bovine serum albumin, their influence on the protein assay directly in crude homogenates was extremely diverse.
  • (3) Slight cross-reactivity was apparent when crude preparations of cellular or culture filtrate antigens, used in this laboratory to detect antibodies to Candida albicans, Coccidioides immitis and Cryptococcus neoformans, were probed with hyperimmune rabbit antisera to A. fumigatus.
  • (4) The crude survival rate at 5 years was 83.3% (age-adjusted 96%), and at 10 years 53.8%).
