How can you use “compaction” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In conclusion, this study is in agreement with our earlier finding that nuclear fiber cell compaction in the lens is a normal and measurable process with advancing age; the process of cataractogenesis appears to have a profound effect on the extent and severity of compaction in the nucleus.
To detect differences in the extent of compaction between transparent and cataractous diabetic lenses, some of the same analysis procedures outlined in our previous SEM compaction study were used [ 4 ] . In brief, each sample was oriented with the features of interest perpendicular to the viewing angle (0° tilt).
Sequence alignment of Encephalitozoon midasin with that from the other available organisms shows that the different domains of the protein have been affected to conspicuously different extents by this compaction (See Additional File 1: FullAlignment).
As observed in non-diabetic aged transparent and age-related human cataractous lenses, it appears that nuclear fiber cell compaction is responsible for these differences.
This suggests that the compaction changes observed in this study are not necessarily a direct effect of diabetes itself, but are perhaps due to morphological changes in the nuclei undergoing cataractogenesis.
