  • (a.) Alt. of Energetical

Example Sentences:

  • (7) Although the (n-h) plots predict the stereochemical possibility of both right-handed and left-handed helices, nucleic acids apparently prefer right-handed conformation because of the energetics associated with the sugar-phosphate backbone and the base.
  • (8) Myocardial transformation, along with its energy economizing effect, failed to compensate for unfavorable energetic consequences of structural dilatation and therefore the reduced ventricular efficiency is assumed to be another deleterious factor in the dilated failing heart.
  • (9) The mechanism of amphotericin B action was studied with the aid of cytochemical methods providing determination of the activity of the 4 main enzymes characterizing the cell energetics, i. e. succinate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase inside the cell.
  • (10) Indeed, in our experimental conditions, it was measured that the energetic cost of LA accounted for more than 60% of the periprandial increase in TMR.

  • (13) These results indicate that the polypeptide chain, driven by energetics (nonbonded and electrostatic interactions), is folded into a typical left-handed twisted four-helix bundle with an approximately 4-fold symmetric array, as observed in most four alpha-helix proteins.
  • (14) Analysis of the energetics of the main transition shows that the increase in van der Waals interaction energy resulting from the larger delta V in Tris can be compensated by the favorable energetics of removing terminal methyl groups from the bilayer surface.
  • (15) A major criticism of present models of the energetics and mechanics of sprint running concerns the application of estimates of parameters which seem to be adapted from measurements of running during actual competitions.

Puppyish


Definition:

  • (a.) Like a puppy.

Example Sentences:
