What's the difference between data and dispersion?

Data


Definition:

  • (n. pl.) See Datum.
  • (pl. ) of Datum

  • (16) In 76 patients (73%) radionuclide and hemodynamic data fell in the same category.
  • (17) When the data correlating DHT with protein synthesis using both labelling techniques were combined, the curves were parallel and a strong correlation was noted between DHT and protein synthesis over a wide range of values (P less than 0.001).
  • (18) These data indicate that RNA faithfully transfers "suppressive" as well as "positive" types of immune responses that have been reported previously for lymphocytes obtained directly from tumour-bearing and tumour-immune animals.
  • (19) The inquiry found the law enforcement agencies routinely fail to record the professions of those whose communications data records they access under Ripa.
  • (20) Binding data for both ligands to the enzyme yielded nonlinear Scatchard plots that analyze in terms of four negatively cooperative binding sites per enzyme tetramer.

Dispersion


Definition:

  • (n.) The act or process of scattering or dispersing, or the state of being scattered or separated; as, the Jews in their dispersion retained their rites and ceremonies; a great dispersion of the human family took place at the building of Babel.
  • (n.) The separation of light into its different colored rays, arising from their different refrangibilities.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The results also suggest that the dispersed condition of pigment in the melanophores represents the "resting state" of the melanophores when they are under no stimulation.
  • (2) Somatostatin inhibited carbachol- and cholecystokinin octapeptide-induced pepsinogen secretion from dispersed gastric mucosal cells in a dose-dependent manner.
  • (3) The results of the measurements permitted the identification of five main cytologic types, with regard to nuclear size, nuclear area dispersion and irregularity of nuclear profiles.
  • (4) Considerable glucose 6-phosphatase activity survived 240min of treatment with phospholipase C at 5 degrees C, but in the absence of substrate or at physiological glucose 6-phosphate concentrations the delipidated enzyme was completely inactivated within 10min at 37 degrees C. However, 80mM-glucose 6-phosphate stabilized it and phospholipid dispersions substantially restored thermal stability.
  • (5) Despite their wide dispersion, Vmax and the stereological determinations correlated strongly at 2 mo of age, confirming that Vmax is a robust indicator of the surface area of the air-blood barrier.
  • (6) Phosphatidylcholine dispersed on Celite was rapidly solubilized by neutral bovine serum albumin solutions.
  • (7) The alpha-ScTx receptors seemed to be randomly dispersed on both cell bodies and cell processes.
  • (8) The RB transcript is encoded in 27 exons dispersed over about 200 kilobases (kb) of genomic DNA.
  • (9) We show that, in digitonin-permeabilized goldfish xanthophores, the pigment organelles can be induced to disperse by a combination of cAMP, ATP, and xanthophore cytosol.
  • (10) These results are consistent with the idea that RPE pigment dispersion is triggered by a substance that diffuses from the retina at light onset.
  • (11) Neither temporal dispersion nor focal conduction block occurred.
  • (12) Brain macrophages were studied in dispersed monolayer cultures of post-natal mouse cerebella.
  • (13) These factors include narrowing of septal arteries and the artery to the atrioventricular node, preservation of fetal anatomy with dispersion in the atrioventricular node and His bundle, fibrosis of the sinus node, clefts in the septum, multiple atrioventricular pathways and massive myocardial infarction.

  • (15) Further preparations were conducted to evaluate coatings applied from aqueous dispersion (pseudolatex) using air suspension coating technique.
  • (16) Variation of scrotal colour was not due to changes in melanocyte number or dispersion of melanosomes.
