How can you use “isogenic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
An isogenic variant of nontypeable H. influenzae deficient in expression in pili showed a marked reduction in the ability to grow as a biofilm.
To this end, we carried out similar 8-hour time courses with an isogenic L. monocytogenes strain deficient in actA (DP-L1942, Δ actA ), which is unable to nucleate actin polymerization and hence has no capacity for intracellular motility and intercellular spread [ 30].
Strain M37-1 lacks expression of pili as indicated by absence of hemagglutination and absence of a 22 kDa band on SDS-PAGE corresponding to pilin [ 34 ] . In an experiment comparing biofilm formation in 4 duplicate wells, strain M37-1, the pilus deficient variant, yielded an average optical density of 0.204 whereas its isogenic parent strain, M37, yielded an average optical density of 0.884.
To assess the potential role of pili in biofilm formation, a variant of a strain of nontypeable H. influenzae which lacks expression of pili was tested for biofilm formation along with its isogenic parent strain.
To test this possibility, two groups of six mice were injected with 2 × 10 9cfu of either wild type or an isogenic sagA/pel mutant isolate and the mice observed over a 72 hour period.
