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

  • Importantly, the total nucleic acid concentration was kept constant by varying the amount of labeled cRNA and supplementing the lower amount of labeled cRNA with unlabeled cRNA.

  • The results of cell culture and animal studies have shown that omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) selectively killed cancer cells in vitro [ 1 ] . Furthermore, n-3 PUFAs incorporated into animal diets have reduced tumor growth rates in vivo [ 2 3 4 ] . The prevailing hypothesis for the reduction in tumor cell growth, in vitro or in vivo , by supplementing the diet with high levels of n-3 PUFAs has been that the incorporation of n-3 PUFAs into cell membranes of the tumor cells increased the susceptibility of the cells for lipid peroxidation and that the products of lipid peroxidation subsequently accumulated to cytostatic or cytotoxic levels [ 2 5 6 7 ] . It has also been reported that supplementing the diet of cancer xenograft bearing mice with n-3 PUFAs could increase the efficacy of edelfosine [ 8 ] , doxorubicin [ 9 ] , mitomycin [ 10 ] , cyclophosphomide and 5-fluorouracil [ 11 ] or irinotecan [ 12 ] against the tumor.

  • The timely use of automated diagnosis information, especially with cluster detection algorithms, may be a valuable resource for supplementing current infectious disease surveillance systems.

  • All ES cell lines were cultured on mitotically inactivated primary embryonic fibroblasts in ES cell medium supplemented with recombinant leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) as described elsewhere [ 22 ] . F3 cells were generated by introducing 100 μg of Not1 digested pΔHPRT plasmid into 1.5 × 10 8R1 ES cells by electroporation at 250 volts/500μf/resistance 8 using a BTX ECM600 electroporation system [ 7 ] . Cells containing neo were selected by supplementing the ES cell medium with 250 μg/ml Geneticin (G418, Gibco-BRL) and negative selection against Hsv-tk gene expression was achieved by including 2 μM gancyclovir (Roche).
