The search team had been systematically scanning for large outer Solar System bodies for several years, and had been involved in the discovery of several other large TNOs, including 50000 Quaoar, 90482 Orcus, and 90377 Sedna.
The citation index Web of Science (Thomson Reuters) was systematically scanned for works with brief presentations of visual stimuli.
Genes comprising the MAPK pathway, BRAF, MEK1 and MEK2, were systematically scanned for mutations in 15 ovarian cancer cell lines using bidirectional direct sequencing of all exons.
The entire sample was systematically scanned for biofilm elements.
We systematically scanned for genes in an 800-bp window around each mutation.
Thin sections were systematically scanned for Olg perikarya, photographed, and then astrocytes and neurons in closest proximity to the Olgs were photographed.
The thin sections were examined in a Hitachi 7100 TEM at 100 kV, systematically scanned for motor neurons and images acquired digitally with an axially mounted (2K × 2K) Gatan (Gatan UK, Abingdon, UK) Ultrascan 1000 CCD camera.
The genome is systematically scanned for the presence using a typical interval mapping procedure, in which the position of the hypothetical QTL slides across the genome at one centimorgan intervals.
Researchers have systematically scanned for secondary association signals of coronary disease (by conditioning on the lead SNP at each locus), an approach that identified multiple independent SNP signals in LPA (30).
Such "hacker bots" are proprietary tools and scripts are used to systematically scan sites for vulnerabilities and exploit them at will and in bulk.
Using existing knowledge about a GRN as a baseline model, we systematically scan the genome for additional components and improve our understanding of the existing GRN in a context that enables interpretation and confirmation.
