The phrase "a loss of primary" is not correct and lacks clarity in written English.
It may be used in contexts discussing the loss of primary resources, primary data, or primary relationships, but it requires additional context to be meaningful.
Example: "The study reported a loss of primary data due to technical issues during the experiment."
Alternatives: "a loss of main" or "a loss of key".
The objective of this study is to evaluate the contribution of the nonstructural infilled walls in prevention of the progressive collapse of multistory reinforced concrete structures designed according to the ACI 318-08 guidelines and subjected to a loss of primary vertical support.
As a result, a loss of primary host diversity may lead to increased prevalence of West Nile virus, particularly when remaining species are effective reservoir hosts.
Hedgehog signaling has been shown to be abnormal due to a loss of primary cilia in stage 20HH talpid embryos.
As we have previously seen, p27Xic1-MO injection led to reduced expression of neural-β-tubulin on the injected side, demonstrating a loss of primary neurons compared with the contralateral uninjected side (Vernon et al., 2003).
On the other hand, the remaining HCC are of high stage and grade (i.e., >= 3) and appear to cluster randomly, possibly indicating a loss of primary tissue profile associated with grade (see Table 1).
As she testified, "If every woman who stays with her significant other hoping for wedding bells to ring is threatened with a loss of her primary residence, then half the women in New York City may be in danger of losing their apartments".
The absence of "facultative use of the primary host" constitutes a strong argument in favour of the fundatrix specialisation hypothesis, suggesting that host alternation loss involves a loss of the primary host, but not of the secondary host.
Physical asset performance management is dependent on the integrity of the asset being sustained for the life of the investment, in order to perform at design capacity without a major loss of primary containment (LOPC).
Cells expressing ΔCXCR7 showed a marginal loss of primary antibody from the cells surface over time, in accordance with the notion that ΔCXCR7 does not internalize upon ligand exposure [5] and the failure of mediating CXCL12 degradation (Figure 3D).
Since we have previously shown a connection between loss of the primary cilium and cyst formation in VHL disease (Frew et al, 2008b; Thoma et al, 2007), we examined whether epithelial cells lining simple cystic lesions that arise in Vhl/Trp53 double mutant mice displayed a similar loss of primary cilia.
To further test the functional significance of miR-16 as a metastasis suppressor gene, we used a loss-of-function approach in primary sarcomas.
