What's the difference between palp and palpability?

Palp


Definition:

  • (n.) Same as Palpus.
  • (v. t.) To have a distinct touch or feeling of; to feel.

Example Sentences:

  • (12) When aspartate- and alanine transaminase (AST and ALT, respectively) activities were studied in homogenates of rat cerebellum, brain cortex and brain stem (using a modified procedure by Raitman and Frenkel), addition of 50 microM pyridoxal-5-phosphate (PALP) increased 2-3-fold the activity studied.
  • (13) Their action is evidently realized on the level of competition with PALP when these compounds attach to apotransaminases.
  • (14) Intrarenal TOB levels in rats receiving TOB and PALP were lower than those in rats given TOB alone.
  • (15) The effect of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PALP) and trifluoperazine (TFPZ), the calmodulin antagonist, on in vitro platelet adhesion to collagen and collagen-induced platelet activation was studied using platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) or washed platelets (WPL).
  • (16) Sparse fibers were also seen in the body wall, parapodia, and cephalic palps.
  • (17) The olfactory sensilla on the maxillary palp tip of Locusta migratoria (L.) resemble the surrounding contact chemoreceptors in general morphology.
  • (18) The presence of MAO in the epithelium of the buccal palps was also demonstrated.
  • (19) However, pALP appears to lack the internal signal sequence of the corresponding human protein.
  • (20) The formation of the decarboxylated product, muscimol, which primarily occurred in a synaptosomal fraction, was dependent on the presence of pyridoxal-5-phosphate (PALP) and was inhibited by (S)-glutamic acid, 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3MPA), aminooxyacetic acid (AOAA), and allyglycine, suggesting that ibotenic acid is a substrate for GAD.

Palpability


Definition:

  • (n.) The quality of being palpable, or perceptible by the touch.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Over a period of 9 months a 12-year-old girl spontaneously developed a palpable cystic tumor in the upper eye lid which led to an indentation and downward displacement of the globe.

  • (3) Patients were grouped as +RSC if they developed a sustained spontaneous palpable pulse or blood pressure and as -RSC if they did not develop a pulse or blood pressure.
  • (4) The lesion presented as a discrete, palpable mass that led to orchiectomy.
  • (5) The criteria selected by a classification tree method were similar: palpable purpura, age less than or equal to 20 years at disease onset, biopsy showing granulocytes around arterioles or venules, and gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • (6) A palpable, purpuric, nonpruritic eruption occurred in a 64-year-old man nine days after he received intravenous streptokinase therapy, which was successful in treating acute myocardial infarction.
  • (7) Abdominal pain was the most common presenting symptom and a pelvic mass was palpable in all patients.
  • (8) The tumor was palpable on physical examination, but not apparent on plain radiographs.
