Example sentences for: inter-individual

How can you use “inter-individual” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • A large fraction of candidate genes tested by quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) were found to vary significantly, even among individuals from inbred strains [ 32 ] . Another study reported analysis of inter-individual variations in gene expression in liver, testis and kidney of male C57B/6 mice using a 5000-spot microarray.

  • In addition to lingering questions concerning variability due to specific experimental procedures, there are other possible sources of variability that have not yet been investigated, specifically tissue heterogeneity and inter-individual variation.

  • Moreover, inter-individual variation in cell-type composition among murine retinas appears to be minimal [ 44 ] , and thus variable ratios of cell types in dissected retinas does not appear to account for the observed variation.

  • There are, however, several published microarray experiments in which, although individual variation in gene expression was not explicitly addressed, variation in gene expression in age- and sex-matched individual mice or pooled samples of three or fewer mice was measured and found to be relatively small [ 36 37 38 39 ] . These include data from both peripheral tissue and brain that reported r -values for individual mice at around 0.98 [ 37 38 ] , and one publicly available dataset of inter-individual comparisons of CNS tissues [ 38 ] . We analyzed this dataset and found it to have correlation coefficients in the 0.97-0.

  • Our results agree quite well with several recent reports in which inter-individual variation in gene expression is explicitly examined.
