The phrase "analysis aimed at discerning" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing a type of analysis that focuses on understanding or identifying specific details or patterns.
Example: "The research involved an analysis aimed at discerning the underlying factors contributing to the observed trends."
Alternatives: "analysis focused on identifying" or "analysis intended to reveal".
In this work, experiments and calculations aimed at discerning the simultaneous influence of both diffusive and convective mechanisms to the transport of metabolites.
Discussion: We suggest that the application of dominant negative nuclear receptors has utility in transient transfection studies aimed at discerning the regulatory role of individual nuclear receptor transcription factors in inducible hepatic gene expression, provided that appropriate controls are employed.
A metaproteomic approach aimed at discerning UTI from asymptomatic bacteriuria was also previously reported.
Future studies aimed at discerning metabolic alterations between Se-sensitive and Se-tolerant plants may provide insight on how to improve Se tolerance in crops.
These notions have an increased significance in research protocols aimed at discerning genetic predisposition to psychiatric conditions, due to the stigma associated with the latter.
Since CCR2 is crucial for monocyte mobilization during inflammation (Serbina & Pamer, 2006), while CX3CR1 confers survival signals in monocytes and plaque macrophages (Landsman et al, 2009), we aimed at discerning such mechanisms from recruitment.
Finally, we conducted experiments aimed at discerning whether SGSM 49 was capable of modulating Aβ peptide variant production in a cell-based assay harboring a missense mutation in PS1 (M146L).
This analysis aimed to discern whether GSC similarity was more related to vaccine-induced or standard therapy-induced expression profiles globally, but is not able to discern further details of what specific genes are involved in any relationships so identified.
Unfortunately, the background is only used to adjust peak calling and not as a pre-processing step that aims at discerning the signal from the background noise.
