Sentence examples for fractional cells from inspiring English sources

The maximum stable time step when using these boundary conditions can be arbitrarily small, due to the presence of small fractional cells inside the vacuum region.

Mutant cells started accumulating as fractional cells at the same rate as parent cells.

The fractional cell number was computed by multiplying the percentage by the total WBC count.

High levels of Bcl-2 in cancer cells increase even further the inherent cell-to-cell variations in cell fate, increasing the likelihood of fractional cell killing.

An extent of the antagonistic interaction was shown by CI > 1, values which were obtained from the fractional cell-kill levels (Fa) at both culture cells.

Fractional cell viability was calculated as: (OD of sample - OD of dead control)/(OD of live control - OD of dead control) where OD is the optical density.

For cancer cells our results show that treatment of a hypothetical population of identical cancer cells still leads to fractional cell killing, which results solely from the intrinsic stochastic variability in chemical reactions.

The isobologram method is a graphical representation of the pharmacologic interaction and is formed by selecting a desired fractional cell kill (Fa) and plotting the individual drug doses required to generate that Fa on their respective x- and y-axes.

Specific inhibition of Caspase-3 in concert with chemotherapy may be an interesting, novel approach for the treatment of those tumours characterised by fractional cell killing, resistance and relapse.

However, even when all intra- and extracellular parameters are equal between the cells, including lack of variations in protein concentration, significant cell-to-cell variability in Td was observed in response to the BH3 mimetic (Fig.  4, Fig. S7), leading to fractional cell killing within the time scale of our analysis.

Combining docetaxel with ombrabulin yielded additive and sometimes synergistic activity in a range of tumour cell lines at ombrabulin doses below the highest non-toxic dose, as was demonstrated by fractional cell kill values and anti-proliferative activity on endothelial cells when ombrabulin administration preceded that of docetaxel by 24 h (Lejeune et al, 2005; Kim et al, 2007).
