(n.) One with whom something is deposited; a depositary.
Example Sentences:
(1) Radioisotopic indication was used to investigate the processes of the metals' absorption in the blood, their distribution to the secondary depositories and elimination from the organism.
(2) A reproducible pattern of resorptive and depository areas was found on the bony surface.
(3) In about half of the specimens, arch width was not decreased, because the lateral side of the corpus is usually of a depository nature.
(4) It might be an indication of differential processes of bone transformations in such a way that bone surfaces corresponding to areas of enzyme reactions are depository whereas bone surfaces corresponding to areas of lack of enzyme reaction are resorptive.
(5) Cl2MBP also decreased the osteoblast number and bone apposition rate on depository surfaces of alveolar bone, and reduced the rate of molar drifting (p less than 0.05).
(6) Blood was taken from a patient and marked by the department of nuclear medicine; it was then injected in the concha in the way a depository cortisone preparation is injected, and after several moments blood was taken from an arm vein and the radioactivity measured.
(7) Here's Dick Raaz, the outgoing head of the waste depository: "The good news about radioactive waste is it self-destructs, if you just give it long enough."
(8) Also, over-all arch length is not decreased, because the surface of the mental protuberance is retained as a depository type of field (or at least does not become actively resorptive).
(9) Mandibles were removed 9 weeks after injections, the mineralizing front of the depository surface of the interdental septum was exposed by fracture through the periodontal ligament, rendered anorganic, and examined by scanning electron microscopy.
(10) In most of the edentulous specimens, the surface of the basal bone on both the medial and lateral sides of the corpus is of a depository nature.

(16) That trust is undermined with each public sale and risks the public's perception of a museum as a safe depository.
(17) This conclusion has been reached by comparing the distribution of the two enzymes on the surfaces of fibulae from young rats with the patterns of apposition and resorption on the periosteal surfaces of this bone, revealed by in vivo staining with alizarin red S. Presence of reaction to acid phosphatase is, as shown before, an indication of resorptive surfaces, while the presence of reaction to alkaline phosphatase is an indication of depository surfaces.
(18) The entire perimeter of each section was analyzed for the distribution of resorptive and depository periosteal surfaces, and from this information, the fields of remodeling were mapped for the mandible as a whole.
