(11) They are becoming more and more sophisticated, so if you have anything worth stealing, it’s worth it.” A video of his facility shows a client using a personalised fob and code through two doors to gain access to a reception where staff behind bulletproof glass identify clients as they give their biometric data to enter the vault.
(12) The two independent molecules, one SCN- ion and 97 associated water molecules were refined by molecular dynamics and annealing techniques to R = 19.6% (10,913 Fobs, resolution 5-1.7 A).
(13) We're going to fob you off with some old jumble from the attic."
(14) When comparisons can be made between effects detected with the FOB and other methods of measuring neurotoxicity (e.g., neuropathology), concurrent validity can also be established.
(15) Frequently, the FOB is used in conjunction with other measures of neurotoxicity, i.e., neuropathology or sensory evoked potentials.

(19) That applied equally to the working-class man who felt fobbed off by statistics about border guards when he was worried about EU immigration, and to the woman who works long hours in a small business.
(20) In a prospective randomized trial, we examined the value of routine postlobectomy fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) in preventing postoperative atelectasis.
Fub
Definition:
(n.) Alt. of Fubs
(v. t.) To put off by trickery; to cheat.
Example Sentences:
(1) FUB 1 specifically recognises both native and denatured bovine carbonic anhydrase in ELISA assays.
(2) We reported a new monoclonal antibody, designated FUB-1, reacting with normal and neoplastic large lymphoid cells.
(3) In the normal lymphoid tissue, FUB-1 reacted with large lymphoid cells, but not with small or medium-sized lymphoid cells or plasma cells.
(4) FUB-1 also reacted with normal glandular epithelium and various adenocarcinomas.
(5) Carbonic anhydrase (CA) from mouse erythrocyte membranes is recognised as an autoantigen in Western blotting experiments with FUB 1, a murine IgM monoclonal antibody that binds both phosphatidylcholine and bromelain-treated mouse red blood cells (BrMRBC).
(6) The serological identity of the determinants of CA and BrMRBC was confirmed by specific absorption of both FUB 1 and LPS-serum with BrMRBC and normal mouse erythrocytes.
(7) Systematic examination of model-dependent predictions of changes in the hepatic extraction ratio (E), following alteration in the unbound fraction of drug in plasma (fub), should allow sensitive discrimination between the venous equilibrium model (model I) and the sinusoidal perfusion model (model II) of hepatic sinusoidal function if drugs which show high clearance of free drug are used.
(8) From SDS-PAGE, and blotting experiments with whole mouse erythrocytes, we found two closely spaced glycoprotein bands in the 30 kD region that reacted with both FUB 1 and LPS-serum.
(9) Conversely, data for phenytoin (E = 0.69 at fub = 1) failed to discriminate between models, as predicted by our analysis.
(10) Specifically, data related to diazepam (E = 0.95 at fub = 1) clearly conformed to the predictions of the sinusoidal perfusion model and differed markedly from those of the venous equilibrium model.
