strain (e.g. in relations) force (meaning) strain (strain away liquid) strain (muscle) To separate or isolate components from one another with the help of a filter. (to) strain (strain away liquid) Nervousness resulting from mental stress. Deformation of a physical body under the...
Benchmarking the results of 4Pipe4 with QualitySNPng as the SNP caller, more SNPs were returned (513|147 SNPs found with the default|tuned values) than with our SNP caller, but with a larger rate of false positives (only 60|22 SNPs were a match to those found by AtlasSNP2, meaning ...
However, the promoter may be “leaky,” meaning there may be a considerable level of gene expression without induction. To reduce the basal expression level, some BL21(D3) strains are designed to carry a p...
A systematic comparative analysis of data obtained with domesticated vs. wild populations is not the aim of the present review. Studies dealing with both laboratory and wild species will be integrated and compared based more on their functional meaning rather then their comparative value. View ...
. The non-linearity is partly due to changes in the foam microstructural geometry at high strains. These foams fall into the category of non-linearly elastic materials, with soft biological materials and rubbers. They are sometimes calledhyperelasticmaterials, meaning that the stress–strain relation...
“Some of our research is in the field of bioinformatics, meaning that we are looking at the genetic sequence, and drawing conclusions from there. For example, today we’re trying to take coronavirus proteins and encapsulate their mRNA into a human cell. We want to know how a virus can su...
‘meaning of network edges’ was set to evidence, all the active sources of interactions were allowed, minimum required interaction score was set at the default value of 0.4, and for display purpose, no more than 10 interactions were allowed in the 1stshell and no more than 20 interactions ...
Going back to our original question, what could be the ecological meaning of the prominent sex effects emerging in the literature? The differences in early social behaviour in male and female chicks may reflect specific adaptations to the adult social and territorial behaviour of the two sexes. I...
Conversely, the previously published PathoID algorithm does not penalize reads relative to their ‘best’ read alignment, meaning that reads that align perfectly have the same influence on the result as reads whose best alignment contains base mismatches. Furthermore, in the PathoID version 1.0, ...
