The phrase "a slight contribution of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the impact or input of something that is minimal or not significant in a particular context.
Example: "The study revealed a slight contribution of environmental factors to the overall health outcomes."
Alternatives: "a minor contribution of" or "a small amount of".
Nonetheless, those isolates presenting the mph(A) together with another MRG ranked among those most resistant and less affected by the addition of PAβN, suggesting a slight contribution of other MRGs to final MIC levels when mph(A) gene is present.
A slight contribution of the arch effect was also evidenced with a direction of the shear cracks lower than 45° angle.
At first sight, this should mean only a slight contribution of glycolysis to ATP synthesis in the liver.
Importantly, our data also suggest a slight contribution of the 3′ss to this process (80% in IVSΔ5′ss and 95% in IVSmut).
On the other hand, when glycolysis was previously inhibited by IAA (0.5 mmol/L; 2 min), we observed a slight decrease in ATP content to a new steady state reached within 10 min. This decrease accounted for a maximum of 10% of the initial ATP content, indicating a slight contribution of glycolysis to total ATP synthesis.
As illustrated in Figure S2 (pink plot), the platinum inner layer of the micromotors has a slight contribution on the oxidation of Rh6G, leading to a 10% oxidization of dye after 5 h with Ti/Pt micromotors.
Large amounts of public and private investment are going into solar, wind and biofuel development, but so far they are making only a slight contribution to energy supplies.
At higher temperatures around 1200 1500 °C, the activation energy increased up to 162 ± 22 kJ/mol level, which could be an indication of a slight contribution from the volume diffusion [6, 21, 22].
The enhancement of carbon bonding strength with increasing temperature was shown to be caused mainly by the evaporation of absorbed gases, probably water, up to temperatures of 1800 K with a slight additional contribution of thermal residual stress.
He made possible the significant, if slighter, contributions of Arthur Miller, whose Death of a Salesman (1949) and A View from the Bridge (1955) contain material of tragic potential that is not fully realized.
