Example: "The committee implemented a stringent selection process to ensure only the most qualified applicants were considered for the position."
Alternatives: "a rigorous selection" or "a strict selection".
17, 18 To select this novel SERM, a stringent selection process was implemented to assess its biological activity and tissue selectivity on key endpoints, which included the uterus, lipid metabolism, bone remodeling, and central nervous system function.
A stringent selection process is also vital to maintaining standards, Smith says.
Prospective teachers undergo a stringent selection process before they are admitted to the National Institute of Education for their pre-service education.
A stringent selection strategy resulted in the identification of 60 unique HIV-1 peptide phage, which were subjected to sequence analysis and mapped onto the ITM1 envelope sequences.
As shown in a previous study [27], our study showed that, after having submitted nonagenarian's patients to a stringent selection process, ICU physicians provided similar treatment as to octogenarian patients, namely ventilation procedures, and vasoactive drugs administration, except for the use of RRT for nonagenarians.
A stringent selection threshold improves the likelihood of isolating true high producers over background variation, but also more strongly biases for cells perturbed above steady state at the time of selection.
Although the results were better for the polyA+ RNA purchased from a commercial vendor, where a more stringent selection protocol was applied, we still find that > 50% of the intragenic reads map to introns.
The use of a dye-swap approach provides a more stringent selection condition for changed gene expression profiling than the use of a simple single/two-color approach (Hirano et al., 2007; Hirano et al., 2008; Hirano et al., 2009; Tano et al., 2010a; Tano et al., 2010b; Ogawa et al., 2011).
For genes with a high number of references (e.g. APP or APOE) a more stringent selection of abstracts is favorable, whereas for genes with a lower number of references a less restrictive search strategy might be beneficial.
We believed that the presence of these stimuli would lead to a more stringent selection of the relevant characteristic, and thus, a more efficient selection of shape, reducing the effect of the incidental conjunction of color.
Owing to the limited number of APCs and the accessibility of MHCs and costimulatory molecules in vitro, a more stringent selection for activation may be imposed despite an excess of the galactosylated CII peptide.
