(20) This insensibility was already acting in the third month of intrauterine life of the fetus.
Intensate
Definition:
(v. t.) To intensify.
Example Sentences:
(1) Patients with normal echocardiogram and ECG on admission do not require intensive care monitoring.
(2) Apparently, the irradiation with visible light of a low intensity creates an additional proton gradient and thus stimulates a new replication and division cycle in the population of cells whose membranes do not have delta pH necessary for the initiation of these processes.
(3) beta-Endorphin blocked the development of fighting responses when a low footshock intensity was used, but facilitated it when a high shock intensity was delivered.
(4) Type 1 changes (decreased signal intensity on T1-weighted spin-echo images and increased signal intensity on T2-weighted images) were identified in 20 patients (4%) and type 2 (increased signal intensity on T1-weighted images and isointense or slightly increased signal intensity on T2-weighted images) in 77 patients (16%).
(5) The intensity of the type III specific peptide bands correlates with the type III content of the samples.
