Lagging
Definition:
(p. pr. & vb. n.) of Lag
(n.) The clothing (esp., an outer, wooden covering), as of a steam cylinder, applied to prevent the radiation of heat; a covering of lags; -- called also deading and cleading.
(n.) Lags, collectively; narrow planks extending from one rib to another in the centering of arches.
Example Sentences:
(1) At the moment we are, if anything, slightly lagging."

(3) When cultures were pulse labeled for 15 min and then incubated under chase conditions for 105 min, the amount of degraded collagen attained a value equal to approximately 20% of the amount synthesized during the labeling period; the data were fit with a simple exponential function that had a 40-min rise time and a 12-min lag time.
(4) It is conceivable that DNA replication of RSF1010 does not need the priming mechanism for lagging strand synthesis and proceeds by the strand displacement mechanism.
(5) Supplementation of neuraminidase-treated Lp(a) with N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) at concentrations comparable to the naturally occurring amounts of NANA in the Lp(a) protein moiety led to an increase of the lag-phase yielding values which were comparable to those observed with native Lp(a).
