The phrase "affect the selectivity of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing how one factor influences the ability to choose or differentiate between options, often in scientific or technical discussions.
Example: "The presence of certain chemicals can significantly affect the selectivity of the catalyst in the reaction."
Alternatives: "influence the specificity of" or "impact the discrimination of".
These affect the selectivity of the nanopore differently and enable discrimination between polypeptide translocation and retraction.
Finally, it is shown in the paper that dilution can also affect the selectivity of a catalyti.
In this experiment, we determined what factors affect the selectivity of the conversion to either cylcohexane (hydrogenation) or benzene (dehydrogenation).
To test this idea, we implemented an experimentally tractable system to systematically characterize how cell-type-specific drug interactions affect the selectivity of combination therapies, by profiling combinations of antifungal drugs applied to the yeast species Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans.
Our results indicate that male family successors are chosen not because of higher human capital levels but because of the contest rulers' gender preferences in favor male family heirs, which adversely affect the selectivity of CEO succession contests.
In addition to desulfurization and changes in the structure of the active sulfided catalyst, the formation of coke and high molecular weight compounds on the catalyst decreased its activity but did not affect the selectivity of HDO.
Both contact and available-selection processes affecting the selectivity of the "boliche" were modelled by fitting two selection curves: the logistic (a retention curve) and the encounter-probability (probability that a fish contacts the net) models.
This review describes the use of MIPs in solid-phase extraction with emphasis on their synthesis, the various parameters affecting the selectivity of the extraction, their potential to selectively extract analytes from complex aqueous samples or organic extracts, their on-line coupling with LC and their potential in miniaturized devices.
The solid support affects the selectivity of the O2-assisted photooxidation process of glycerol.
Decreasing the degree of oxidation of the oxygen carrier affected the selectivity of the NH3 oxidation towards NO.
Magnesium was also found to have a harmful effect not only on the recovery rate, but most notably on the P2O5 content, affecting the selectivity of the process.
