Words similar to scatter
Example sentences for: scatter
How can you use “scatter” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The frequencies of hyperploid cells were used as a measure of aneuploidy because an unknown proportion of the hypoploid cells is influenced by technical artifact resulting from excessive chromosome scatter during slide preparation.
As expected from the pairwise correlation data, the expression patterns based on data from the 5A and 5ADUP experiments have a closer linear relationship on the scatter plot than that observed between tumors 5A and 9. Interestingly, tumors 7 and 9 differed by only 1158 genes with a pairwise correlation coefficient of 0.874, indicating that these tumors may be more similar to each other than they are to tumors 5A and 5B.
Whereas classic statistical tests (like t- and F-statistics) are based on assumptions concerning distribution and variable independence that do not hold for microarray data [ 1, 19] the permutation-validation procedure presented here makes no assumption about the dependence of gene-expression measurement within the expression matrix X . Therefore, gene-specific scatter is taken into consideration by calculating the test-value permutation distributions for each gene under the null hypothesis of no group-structure effect in the expression profiles.
Finally, to examine reproducibility, a scatter plot of the log of gene ADIs for two distinct hybridizations (10 pM transcript concentration in the presence of fixed eukaryotic background) was produced (Figure 4a).
The criteria for eliminating a cell from analysis included: inadequate C-banding for discriminating between intact dyads and those separated at the centromere, overlapped or clumped chromosomes, or excessive chromosome scatter that precluded an objective analysis of numerical or structural aberrations.
