The phrase "and applying the sample" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are discussing the process of using or implementing a sample in a practical situation or experiment.
Example: "The next step in the experiment involves collecting the data and applying the sample to the analysis."
Alternatives: "and utilizing the sample" or "and implementing the sample".
All analytical procedures took account of the multi-stage sampling design by using the svy family of commands in STATA and applying the sampling weights.
We also evaluated other techniques for preparing slides, including high-speed cytospin, different funnel types, a thin prep or cell block, and applying the samples to slides directly as a smear.
The researchers then dipped the tip into lysing reagents, freeing the hemoglobin, and applied the sample to the cellulose acetate membrane for electrophoresis.
After confirming the amount and integrity of the PCR products by agarose gel electrophoresis, we mixed virtually equal amounts of the respective PCR amplicons that were generated using the same genomic DNA and applied the samples to a 454 Genome Sequencer (GS -FLX system (Roche DiaGS -FLXsystem., USA).
Robinson and Moyer (2013) made a start at addressing these issues by simulating age-structured data for three species and applying the single-sample genetic estimator based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) (Hill 1981; Waples and Do 2008).
We can address this question by drawing N rep samples of size 50,000 with replacement and applying the FLIC to each sample.
Urinary albumin excretion was determined using an untimed urine sample and applying the formula urine albumin (mg)/urine creatinine (mmol).
Each fraction was treated with RQ1 RNase-Free DNase (Promega) and was again cleaned up by applying the samples to an RNeasy mini column (Qiagen).
We collecting soil samples and applying the system by the oven-drying method.
The feedback control also relied crucially on the experimenter manually acquiring samples and applying the necessary control inputs to the system a tedious, repetitive and error-prone task that also limited the maximum measurement and input application frequency.
