Synthetic


Definition:

  • (a.) Alt. of Synthetical

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Further analysis with two other synthetic peptides (212Cys to 222Glu and Cys X 221Ile to 236Glu) indicated that the dodecapeptide Ile-Glu-Phe-Gln-Lys-Asn-Asn-Arg-Leu-Leu-Glu mimicked either the whole or a major part of the neutralization epitope.

  • (3) We studied the haemodynamic (ultrasound Doppler flow probes) effects of synthetic atriopeptin II at natriuretic doses in conscious rats.
  • (4) With the stimulated liver being irradiated, the number of cells synthetizing DNA and entering into mitosis was seen reduced almost twice, whereas DNA synthesis and entering into mitosis were delayed, resp., by 4 and 6 hours.
  • (5) A rapid method is described for the purification and analysis of synthetic oligonucleotides, based on reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.
  • (6) Binding studies with synthetic IL2-derived peptides revealed the location of the epitope, which is recognized by mAb BO-7: A peptide representing amino acid residues 59-72 (peptide 84) is strongly reactive with the antibody, while an overlapping peptide (residues 48-69) is not.
