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

Recently, we supplemented the well-known SSH #(suppression subtractive hybridization) technology [ 7 8 ] with the Mirror Orientation Selection method (MOS) for eliminating background clones from SSH-generated libraries [ 9 ] . This innovative procedure allowed the application of these techniques in the subtraction of large eukaryotic genomes, including those of freshwater planarian (haploid genome size of G. tigrina is 1.4 × 10 9bp [ 10 ] ). Using the SSH-MOS combination, genomes of two different strains of G. tigrina were compared.
We propose a variation on the USM encoding and difference metric in which arithmetic operations (subtraction, maximum, and base 2 logarithm) are replaced with equivalent Boolean operations in which the values of individual terms in the above expression do not interact.
After background subtraction, the cDNA array signals are linearly scaled and normalized to compensate for non-biological variation (for example, differential fluorophore incorporation, different amounts of labeled sample, array-to-array variability).
All data from patient and control samples were preprocessed (background subtraction, differential intensities) using Affymetrix GeneChip software, and average differential intensity (ADI) was used for analysis.
Analytical approaches that rely on signal subtraction may have certain advantages [ 4 5 6 ] . Variances for such difference values are the sums of the variances for the individual measurements.
