Example sentences for: infective
How can you use “infective” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The Meloidogyne L2 larvae, the infective stage where the worm is away from the host plant (also referred to as second-stage juvenile in the literature), is more accessible than the rest of the life cycle, and is an interesting stage biologically with the worm completing multiple steps required for survival.
Vaccination would reduce the number of hookworm infective larvae entering the gastrointestinal tract, thereby reducing the number of adult worms and the fecal egg counts in individuals exposed to the larvae.
Under these conditions apoptosis may result from the production of cytokines [ 1 ] , cell activation [ 2 3 4 ] , infective agents [ 5 ] and adverse responses to pharmaceuticals [ 6 7 ] . Depending on the agonist or eliciting milieu, apoptotic cell death is accompanied by the activation of various cell death pathways including caspases, ceramide, altered gene expression, mitochondrial dysfunction and consumption of ATP e.g., with DNA repair, that result in histone-associated DNA fragmentation [ 8 9 ] . Many of these cell death pathways are also associated with the secondary production of oxidants [ 10 ] which appears to contribute to the magnitude of cell death.
If we adopt a more conservative definition of what constitutes an infective mosquito and restrict our analysis to those with L3 found in the head, no change over time was observed.
Other topics where bioinformatics analysis of available ESTs can improve current knowledge of Meloidogyne molecular biology include the identification of secreted and transmembrane proteins through secretion signal sequence detection [ 77 ] , the creation of a more accurate codon usage/bias and amino-acid usage tables [ 78 ] , the identification of conserved genes and pathways used in dauer/infective stages across nematode species [ 79 ] , the definition and study of nematode-specific domains [ 55 ] , and improved phylogenies based on sampling from multiple genes [ 53 ] .
