The phrase "and methods for characterizing" is correct and usable in written English.
You can use it when discussing techniques or approaches used to analyze or describe something in a scientific or technical context.
Example: "The study focuses on various techniques and methods for characterizing the properties of the new material."
Alternatives: "and techniques for analyzing" or "and approaches for describing".
A discrete form of the definition is applied to redundant crystal systems, and methods for characterizing the dislocation tensor with realizable crystallographic dislocations are presented.
DNA methylation has been linked to genome regulation and dysregulation in health and disease respectively, and methods for characterizing genomic DNA methylation patterns are rapidly emerging.
Pfam, Panther [ 32], PROSITE, and Superfamily [ 33] are just a few of the publicly available databases and methods for characterizing protein families or functions; many of them are conglomerated into single integrated tools like InterProScan [ 34] and ProFunc [ 8, 10].
In this review, we outline models as well as calorimetric and spectroscopic methods for characterizing oligomer folding, and describe extensive results obtained for diverse proteins, ranging from dimers to octamers and higher order aggregates.
Induced circular dichroism (ICD) is a spectroscopic phenomenon that provides versatile and useful methods for characterizing the structural and dynamic properties of the binding of drugs to target proteins.
Given that synthetic polymers are always subject to distributions in molecular weights and heterogeneities in microstructure [46, 47], it is important to develop convenient and consistent methods for characterizing SCNP fabrication.
Many studies are confounded by inadequate experimental designs, poor measures of performance, and different methods for characterizing OTS.
The integrated approach described here focuses on the application of an Aerodyne AMS and additional methods for characterizing emissions from amine-based PCCC processes.
Nonetheless, a great need exists to develop, both conceptually and computationally, robust algorithms and advanced analytical methods for characterizing genetic variations that are non-redundant.
The IMAGE (Integrated Methods for Advanced Geothermal Exploration) initiative led to the development of new seismic and electromagnetic investigation methods for characterizing supercritical systems (van Wees et al. 2015), and these methods have been employed at the IDDP sites in Iceland.
With the advent of cheap high-throughput short-read sequencing, whole genome sequencing (WGS) of bacteria is increasingly common and is replacing traditional methods for characterizing and typing bacterial genomes.
