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

When cells were pre-grown in YPD liquid (instead of SD-URA solid) media before being tested on YPD plates, the percentage of colonies that were red or had red sectors remained similar for wild-type, CDC14 TAB 6-1 , and bub2Δ strains, but was ~25% for net1 tab 2-1.
The same crosses were also used to determine if Tab +was recessive or dominant: for every tab mutant, haploid cdc15Δ tab [pMET3-cdcl5-2, URA3] and diploid cdc15Δ/cdc15Δ tab/+ [pMET3-cdc15-2, URA3 ] cells were pre-grown on YPD (1% yeast extract/2% peptone + 2% glucose) at 25°C for 2-3 days, spotted in 5-fold serial dilutions onto SD+5-FOA plates, and the number of 5-FOA resistant colonies from the diploid was divided by that from the haploid to obtain ratio P. The mutant was defined to be dominant if P= 0.1-1, semi-dominant if P= 0.01-0.
