You can use it to describe a method that is widely accepted or commonly applied in a particular field or context.
Example: "In the field of data analysis, regression analysis is a broadly used method for predicting outcomes based on historical data."
Alternatives: "a widely adopted method" or "a commonly used technique".
MACCS keys/Tanimoto is a broadly used method to assess the diversity of compound data sets.
Proteinase K is a relatively non-specific protease cleaving accessible parts of proteins, such as those exposed on the surface of intact cells, and for this reason is a broadly used method to examine the surface exposure of proteins in Borrelia [26], [29], [74] [76], Treponema [69], [77] [80] and other bacteria [81] [84].
Labelling of de novo synthesized proteins often coupled to immunoprecipitation has been and is a broadly used method.
HMM profiles, a broadly used method for sequence classification and protein functional annotation (e.g. Pfam), can be defined as a motif definition with some probabilities involved.
Among different methods for improving the optical response of TiO2, non-metal doping is the most broadly used method to increase the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 [11] 11].
One of the successfully and broadly used methods is analysis of single nucletide polymorphisms (SNPs).
Some broadly used methods such as template matching or derivative-thresholding have the disadvantage that they do not deal well with multiple events occurring within a time period comparable to the sampling interval.
To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we compared it to the commonly used univariate GWAS methods and, at default settings, with VErsatile Gene-based Association Study (VEGAS), a broadly used gene-based test for association (http://gump.qimr.edu.au/VEGAS/) (Liu et al., 2010).
MAD is a broadly used technique of images linear transformation based on Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA).
