The phrase "and hence causing" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to indicate a consequence or result of a previous statement or action.
Example: "The heavy rainfall led to flooding, and hence causing significant damage to the infrastructure."
Alternatives: "thus resulting in" or "thereby leading to".
For example, keeping old technologies and realizing (short-term) economic savings, despite the existence of better solutions and hence causing higher environmental pollution, might result in customer dissatisfaction due to nonconformity with expected ecological behavior and thus decreasing sales that precipitate in the long-term.
The genes encoding putative cell surface binding factors like mucus-binding protein (Mub) and fibronectin-binding protein (Fbp) involved in the cellular interaction, and hence causing a prolonged retention of microorganisms in the host's digestive system and also helping the probiotic organism to competitively inhibit the pathogens, were also detected by PCR assays.
The pendent groups (ethyl and hydroxylethyl) moved to their "nearest minimum downhill" from the starting point during minimization and hence causing the molecules to pass through unfavorable regions.
The high rate of mutations leading to size homoplasy in the present study provides support for alleles of identical size being attributed to common descent and hence causing bias in population genetic estimates.
It is known that certain cyclic RGD peptides or non-peptide RGD mimetics induce EC detachment from adhered surface (de-adhesion) through binding to integrins, and hence causing apoptosis through anoikis.
In addition, paclitaxel treatment induced caspase-3 cleavage that was strongly increased by Pin1 silencing, indicating that reduced levels of Pin1 synergize with paclitaxel in inducing apoptosis and hence causing maximal tumor shrinkage.
