The phrase "an initial screen of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to the first stage of evaluation or assessment in a process, such as in research, testing, or selection.
Example: "The researchers conducted an initial screen of the participants to determine their eligibility for the study."
Alternatives: "a preliminary assessment of" or "an initial evaluation of".
Following an initial screen of 7 HCAII variants with alanine substitutions in positions 121, 143 and 198, detailed kinetic measurements were performed on HCAII and the variants V121A, V143A and V121A/V143A.
The screening workflow proposed in this study utilizes an initial screen of 20% of each compound library.
Firstly, an initial screen of the quality of the samples was performed from the first round of PCR reactions [14].
From an initial screen of 14,956 combinatorially synthesized compounds, 14 compounds that reduced filipin staining of the LSOs at 10 µM were identified.
For an initial screen of the phosphorylation status of a variety of serine/threonine kinases in infected cells, we used the R&D Proteome Profiler® MAPK Array Kit (R&D Systems, Wiesbaden, Germany).
In an initial screen of one fusion, we observed that the majority of clones that tested positive for antibody reactivity to EBNA-1 were also positive for reactivity to dsDNA (10 out of 14 or 71%).
Some schools however will do an initial screening of the centralized application and will only invite a segment of their applicant pool to complete the secondary application.
After utilizing the aforementioned workflow, it is possible to significantly reduce the computational time and manpower expended with an initial screening of the cyclic pressure pulsing process.
Although high-throughput techniques provide an initial screening of the desired properties, more detailed follow-up studies of the selected materials are required to understand the true value of a 'positive hit'.
In the second step using cation exchange chromatography, an initial screening of media and elution pH and a following CCC design were performed, whereby the optimal selectivity of the scFv was obtained on Capto S at pH near 6.0, and the optimal conditions for fulfilling high DBC and purity were identified as pH range of 5.9 6.1 and loading conductivity range of 5 12.5 mS/cm.
Thus, the lowcost, rapid speed and ease make the SBF test the method of choice for an initial screening of newly developed materials.
