| random sample | A group selected randomly, solely by chance. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| Rahn-Otis sample | An approximation of alveolar gas continuously provided by a simple device that admits just the latter part of each expiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Haldane-Priestley sample | <physiology> An approximation of alveolar gas obtained from the end of a sudden maximal expiration into a Haldane tube. (05 Mar 2000) |
| probability sample | Each individual in the sample has a known, generally equal, chance of being selected. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sample | 1. A specimen of a whole entity small enough to involve no threat or damage to the whole; an aliquot. 2. A selected subset of a population; a sample may be random or nonrandom (haphazard); representative or nonrepresentative. Origin: M.E. Ensample, fr. L. Exemplum, example (05 Mar 2000) |
| sample size | The number of units (persons, animals, patients, specified circumstances, etc.) in a population to be studied. The sample size should be big enough to have a high likelihood of detecting a true difference between two groups. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stratified sample | A subset of a total population, defined by some objective criterion such as age or occupation, is sampled. (05 Mar 2000) |
| end-tidal sample | A sample of the last gas expired in a normal expiration, ideally consisting only of alveolar gas. (05 Mar 2000) |
| random | 1. Force; violence. "For courageously the two kings newly fought with great random and force." (E. Hall) 2. A roving motion; course without definite direction; want of direction, rule, or method; hazard; chance; commonly used in the phrase at random, that is, without a settled point of direction; at hazard. "Counsels, when they fly At random, sometimes hit most happily." (Herrick) "O, many a shaft, at random sent, Finds mark the archer little meant !" (Sir W. Scott) 3. Distance to which a missile is cast; range; reach; as, the random of a rifle ball. 4. <chemical> The direction of a rake-vein. Origin: OE. Randon, OF. Randon force, violence, rapidity, a randon, de randon, violently, suddenly, rapidly, prob. Of German origin; cf. G. Rand edge, border, OHG. Rant shield, edge of a shield, akin to E. Rand, n. See Rand. Going at random or by chance; done or made at hazard, or without settled direction, aim, or purpose; hazarded without previous calculation; left to chance; haphazard; as, a random guess. "Some random truths he can impart." (Wordsworth) "So sharp a spur to the lazy, and so strong a bridle to the random." (H. <medicine> Spencer) Random courses, stonework consisting of stones of unequal sizes fitted together, but not in courses nor always with flat beds. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| random allocation | A process involving chance used in therapeutic trials or other research endeavor for allocating experimental subjects, human or animal, between treatment and control groups, or among treatment groups. It may also apply to experiments on inanimate objects. (12 Dec 1998) |
| random amplification of polymorphic DNA | <molecular biology> A term originally invented by polymer chemists to describe a disordered tangle of a linear polymer chain with curved sections. In DNA parlance the random coil refers to the structure that results from melting or other forms of separation of the double helix, i.e. Helix coil transition. (18 Nov 1997) |
| random amplified polymorphic DNA technique | Technique that utilises low-stringency polymerase chain reaction (pcr) amplification with single primers of arbitrary sequence to generate strain-specific arrays of anonymous DNA fragments. Rapd technique may be used to determine taxonomic identity, assess kinship relationships, analyze mixed genome samples, and create specific probes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| random coil | A structure of a macromolecule (typically, a biopolymer) which changes with time. (05 Mar 2000) |
| random mating | Totally haphazard mating with no regard to the genetic makeup (genotype) of the mate so that any sperm has an equal chance of fertilizing any egg. This rarely, if ever, occurs but the concept is impoortant in population genetics. Also called panmixus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| random mating equilibrium | <genetics> In a population containing the genotypes of AA, aa, and Aa, the frequency of AA will be p2, the frequency of aa will be q2, and the frequency of Aa will be 2 pq at equilibrium, where p is the frequency of A and q is the frequency of a. By the Hardy-Weinberg law, a ramdonly-mating population will eventually reach these frequencies and be at this equilibrium as long as there are no selection pressures on the population.
