The phrase "a set of tissue" is not correct in standard English; it should be "a set of tissues." You can use it when referring to multiple pieces or types of tissue, often in a biological or medical context.
Example: "The researcher examined a set of tissues from various organs to study the effects of the disease."
Alternatives: "a collection of tissues" or "a group of tissues."
Stephen Friend of Rosetta Inpharmatics, a subsidiary of Merck based in Kirkland, Washington, and his colleagues have analysed a set of tissue samples from 98 women who had suffered dramatically different fates after their first bouts of the disease.
The spectral imaging system was tested on a set of tissue mimicking liquid phantoms which yielded an optical property extraction accuracy of 6.40 +/- 7.78% for the absorption coefficient (micro(a)) and 11.37 +/- 19.62% for the wavelength-averaged reduced scattering coefficient (micro(s)').
A set of ∼30K unique sequences (UniSeqs) representing ∼19K clusters were generated from ∼98K high quality ESTs from a set of tissue specific non-normalized and mixed-tissue normalized cDNA libraries from the porcelain crab Petrolisthes cinctipes.
In order to address this issue, we included in our on-line database a link to a set of tissue specific microarray results which can be visualized as a heat map.
Thus, class I gene expression is subject to two distinct regulatory pathways: constitutive tissue-specific levels of transcription are established by a set of tissue specific factors that maintain homeostatic activity; cytokine- and hormone-specific factors superimpose a dynamic regulation of transcription.
More importantly, a set of tissue microarray containing tumors and corresponding normal tissues from 866 Chinese patients was employed.
Although prices have not been fixed, a set of tissues like this can sell for $2,000 or more for laboratory use.
For another, according to Nina G. Jablonski, a professor of anthropology at Penn State University and author of "Skin: A Natural History," the definition of an organ is a set of tissues working together toward a common end and outfitted with an independent supply of blood and nerves.
Most of these studies focused on a set of tissue-specific genes that are highly expressed.
The pheromone components of most moths are modified from the products of normal fatty acid metabolism by a set of tissue-specific enzymes.
We define a set of tissue-invariant sites as binding events present in the human ENCODE cell lines Gm19238, Gm19239, H1hesc, HeLA, Huvec, K562, MCF-7, and Progfib.
