What's the difference between substituting and suppletive?

Substituting


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Substitute

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The process of sequence rearrangement appears to be a significant part of the evolution of the genome and may have a much greater effect on the evolution of the phenotype than sequence alteration by base substitution.

  • (7) S-methyl-l-cysteine, 2-hydroxy-4-methiol butyric acid, S-adenosyl-l-methionine, and methionine peptides were the only compounds supporting growth, when substituted for methionine.
  • (8) This implies that the epitope(s) of NNA-PLA2 might comprise some substituted residues in the sequence of PLA2 homologues.
  • (9) The deletions and substitutions appear to occur in separate molecules.
  • (10) Combination of domain substitutions to generate the [Glu107,123]bFGF and [Arg19,Lys123,126]bFGF mutants did not show any additivity of the mutations on biological activity.
  • (11) N-Methoxysulphonamides showed no inhibitory activity, as predicted by the classic work of Krebs on N-substituted inhibitors.
  • (12) Substitution of NaCl in the extracellular medium by sucrose, LiCl, or Na2SO4 had no effect on glutamate stimulation of [3H]dopamine release; however, release was inhibited when NaCl was replaced by choline chloride or N-methyl-D-glucamine HCl.
  • (13) In contrast, strains carrying the substitutions Ile-30----Phe, Gly-33----Leu, Gly-58----Leu, and Lys-34----Val and the Lys-34----Val, Glu-37----Gln double substitution were found to possess a coupled phenotype similar to that of the wild type.
  • (14) Substitutes: Andoni Zubizarreta (Spain), Lajos Detari (Hungary), Dragan Stojkovic (Yugoslavia), Igor Belanov (USSR), Preben Elkjær Larsen (Denmark), Lars Larsson (Sweden), Alexandre Zavarov (USSR).
  • (15) Lipoprotein concentrations reverted to normal after substitution with thyroxine (T4) until the euthyroid state was reached.
  • (16) Taken together with our previous studies showing that MDMA substitutes for the phenylisopropylamine stimulant (+)amphetamine, but that neither MDE nor N-OH MDA substitute for (+)amphetamine or for the phenylisopropylamine hallucinogen 1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenyl)-2-aminopropane (DOM), the present results [i.e., MDMA-stimulus generalization to MDE, N-OH MDA, but not to (+)amphetamine] suggest that 1) MDMA produces effects other than those that may be considered amphetamine-like, and 2) MDE and N-OH MDA are MDMA-like agents with even less of an amphetamine-like component of action than MDMA itself.
  • (17) TK1 showed the most restricted substrate specificity but tolerated 3'-modifications of the sugar ring and some 5-substitutions of the pyrimidine ring.
  • (18) Substitution of DnaK protein with that of the mutant DnaK756 protein blocks lambda P release.
  • (19) To selectively stain polyanionic macromolecules of growth plate cartilage and to prevent artifacts induced by aqueous fixation, proximal tibial growth plates were excised from rats, slam-frozen, and freeze-substituted in 100% methanol containing the cationic dye Alcian blue.
  • (20) Plasma drug concentrations, subjective self-ratings, and the digit symbol substitution test (DSST) were evaluated during 24 hours after dosage.

Suppletive


Definition:

  • (a.) Alt. of Suppletory

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In 33.8% regional anethesia with or without some form of suppletion was considered to be the anesthetic of choice.
  • (2) In contrast with reports in the literature, there was a significant decrease in serum calcium levels in spite of magnesium suppletion and normal serum magnesium levels.
  • (3) However, when suppletive progesterone treatment is given, there is a trend toward a better implantation rate per embryo, and a significantly higher ongoing pregnancy rate is observed in relation to buserelin acetate-hMG treatment (20%) as compared with CC-hMG cycles (14%).
  • (4) No effect of iodide was observed at 23 degrees C. The suppletion of KI did not change pattern of T3 increase after cold exposure.

  • (6) Hormone-dependent metastasized breast cancer of post-menopausal women can be treated with four equivalent drugs: tamoxifen, megestrol, medroxyprogesterone, and--combined with steroid suppletion therapy--aminoglutethimide.
  • (7) Low haemosiderin content of the bone marrow was consistent with iron deficiency, but normalization of Hb without iron suppletion would argue against a major role of iron deficiency.
  • (8) (iv) Suppletion of metabolic substrates (pyruvate, oxaloacetate, and glutamine) postponed the menadione-induced ATP depletion and delayed the onset of cell killing.
  • (9) Since the elderly will retain more natural teeth in the future, whether or not suppleted with prosthetic provisions, their oral self-care becomes more demanding.
