Tentation
Definition:
(n.) Trial; temptation.
(n.) A mode of adjusting or operating by repeated trials or experiments.
Example Sentences:
(1) The pattern of the stressor that causes a change in the pitch can be often identified only tentatively, if there is no additional information.
(2) The tentative diagnosis "neurinoma of the hypoglossal nerve" was confirmed intraoperatively and histologically.
(3) These compounds were tentatively identified as two epimers at C-23 of 3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestano-26,23-lactone, which were probably artifacts formed from the corresponding tetrahydroxycholestanoic acids during the procedures for extraction after hydrolysis.
(4) Minimal breast cancer should include lobular carcinoma in situ (lobular neoplasia) and ductal carcinoma in situ regardless of nodal status, and (tentatively) invasive carcinoma smaller than 1 cm in total diameter, if axillary lymph nodes are not involved.
(5) Based on these data, a tentative life cycle for P. carinii in vitro has been proposed.
(6) Investigation of the mechanism of action of the synergistic effect between kanamycin and HA led to the tentative conclusion that potentiation was mediated through an initial alteration of cell permeability by the aminoglycoside antibiotic which permitted accumulation of each of the six HA into the cell, at which point each interacted with pyridoxal phosphate.
(7) Taking this into account, it was tentatively concluded that the mature NDP kinase consists of 147 amino acid residues with a molecular weight of 16,724.
