The phrase "a control population may be" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to research, statistics, or scientific studies when discussing a group used for comparison purposes.
Example: "In this study, a control population may be necessary to determine the effects of the treatment accurately."
Alternatives: "a reference population could be" or "a comparison group might be".
Although the use of children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in remission as control population may be problematic when compared with "normal" children, there are ethical issues concerning studies with radiolabelled compounds in normal healthy children.
We suggest that approximately five pools and 30 samples per pool from the case and control populations may be sufficient to investigate the disease risk of chemical pollution.
Control in a reservoir host population may be achieved by reducing host or vector density (e.g., culling possums to control tuberculosis in New Zealand [ 39], mosquito control for West Nile fever, or sandfly control for cutaneous leishmaniasis [ 40]).
The network generates synchronous bursts of activity, and the frequency of both single cells and the synaptically coupled pacemaker cell population may be controlled by varying the degree of depolarizing input (DI).
The median age of enteric fever may be higher in LSMC than in other locations and we suggest that tackling the disease in school-age children and the transient male population may be key to controlling the ongoing transmission of enteric fever in this densely-populated area.
To control HCC on a population scale, rather than focusing on high-risk individuals, abdominal ultrasonography (AUS) of the general population may be useful.
Under the influence of control, dingo populations may be driven towards the unstable states of A or B. The changes following relaxation of control indicate that recovery may follow two main phases.
Although it is unclear why, these differences may offer some insights for local cancer control efforts, where targeting certain populations may be of interest.
This suggests that in many cases, the model of variation in real populations may be controlled by many genes and behave somewhat like the model with many small QTL effects controlling variation.
Subtle differences in the compositions of control and Type 2 diabetes LDL populations may be responsible for the differences in gene expression in this paper as there was no difference in the amount of apolipoprotein B oxidised epitopes.
