Example Sentences:
(1) We studied changes in the distribution pattern of relative RNA content during the in vitro aging of TIG-3 cells by flow cytometry (FACS III).
(2) It is concluded that TIG is not superior to ATS in managing moderate and severe grade cases.
(3) Low-level exposure to hexavalent chromium associated with TIG stainless steel and mild steel welding do not appear to be a major hazard for human spermatogenesis.
(4) G0-arrested human diploid fibroblasts, TIG-1, was stimulated to induce DNA synthesis by serum, epidermal growth factor (EGF), colchicine, colcemid, or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA).
(5) In TIG-1 cells, when taxol was added within 6 h, about halfway into the initiation of DNA synthesis after the addition of FBS or EGF, the inhibition of DNA synthesis still occurred.
(6) SCE was lower in welders working with both MMA and TIG welding than in reference persons.
(7) In addition, TIG provides an organized approach to managing data acquisition on instruments equipped with automated sampling systems.
(8) We proposed that the newly designed EIA kit could be used for understanding the TIG level in women who are in the age group for giving birth and in the tetanus vaccination group.
(9) The gangliosides in human diploid fibroblasts--TIG-1, TIG-7, and IMR-90--were analysed at different cell densities at early and late passages to clarify the relationship between age and cell density dependent changes of the gangliosides.
(10) The migration of human fetal lung fibroblasts (TIG-1 and TIG-3) decreased only very slightly with increasing passage, whereas the migration of human fetal skin fibroblasts (TIG-3S) declined gradually: the difference in cell migratory ability between early and late passages was significant (P less than 0.05).
(11) On the basis of our data, we concluded that old rabbit serum stimulates, not inhibits, the proliferation of RSF and TIG-1 cells.

(13) Treatment of quiescent human embryonic lung fibroblastic cells (TIG-3) with 10 nM epidermal growth factor (EGF) resulted in 4-6-fold activation of a protein kinase activity in cell extracts that phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) on serine and threonine residues in vitro.

(19) Antitoxin of equine origin and human tetanus immune globulin (TIG) were equally effective.
