It can be used when referring to a careful and strict process of choosing or filtering something, such as candidates, items, or options.
Example: "The committee conducted a stringent selection of applicants to ensure only the most qualified individuals were chosen for the program."
Alternatives: "a rigorous selection of" or "a strict selection of".
Considering that our current subset of Xrn1-activated genes represents a stringent selection of Xrn1-dependent events, our analysis might miss transcripts affected by Xrn1 depletion (false negatives).
In combination, these criteria resulted in a stringent selection of subnetworks, compare Table 1.
The transformed yeast cells displayed an enhanced ability to tolerate unfavourable conditions imposed by salinity stress at a stringent selection of 750 mM NaCl concentration.
All array probes were designed from known transcripts and ESTs based on the chicken genome assembly WASHUC1 (Dec. 2004), and a stringent selection of probes was performed before the analysis.
The specific features of our transcriptional profiling included a stringent selection of normal and tumoral prostate tissue samples, based on epithelial representations, the use of pure stromal samples, and the inclusion of four epithelial cell cultures.
By this, we ensure a stringent selection of subnetworks for further analysis: Resulting subnetworks are both enrichted with hits from the RNAi screens, and show topological properties that distinguish them from random clusters.
The combination of data from different studies for our analysis resulted in a large number of included expression profiles for the investigated subset of patients although a stringent selection criterion of a follow up of 5 years was applied.
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.
This finding likely is consistent with a lower threshold for hospitalization in the control group, i. e. for a more stringent selection of patients needing hospitalization in the study group.
