| downstream processing | The various stages of processing that occur after the completion of the fermentation or bioconversion stage, including separation, purification, and packaging of the product. (14 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| image processing, computer-assisted | A technique of inputting two-dimensional images into a computer and then enhancing or analyzing the imagery into a form that is more useful to the human observer. (12 Dec 1998) |
| thylakoid processing peptidase | <enzyme> Signal type peptidase with stringent substrate requirements at the -3 and -1 positions; removes amino-terminal peptide extension which transports proteins across the thylakoid membrane Registry number: EC 3.4.99.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| tRNA 3'-processing endonuclease | <enzyme> Involved in processing precursor trna from eukaryotic nuclei and organelles between nucleotides 74 and 75 to give 3'c-oh Registry number: EC 3.1.27.- (26 Jun 1999) |
| food-processing industry | The productive enterprises concerned with food processing. (12 Dec 1998) |
| age distribution | The frequency of different ages or age groups in a given population. The distribution may refer to either how many or what proportion of the group. The population is usually patients with a specific disease but the concept is not restricted to humans and is not restricted to medicine. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Bernoulli distribution | <statistics> The probability distribution associated with two mutually exclusive and exhaustive outcomes, e.g., death or survival. (14 Aug 2000) |
| binomial distribution | The probability distribution associated with two mutually exclusive outcomes; used to model cumulative incidence rates and prevalence rates. The bernoulli distribution is a special case of binomial distribution. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gaussian distribution | Continuous frequency distribution of infinite range. Its properties are as follows: 1) continuous, symmetrical distribution with both tails extending to infinity; 2) arithmetic mean, mode, and median identical; and 3) shape completely determined by the mean and standard deviation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chi-square distribution | A distribution in which a variable is distributed like the sum of the the squares of any given independent random variable, each of which has a normal distribution with mean of zero and variance of one. The chi-square test is a statistical test based on comparison of a test statistic to a chi-square distribution. The oldest of these tests are used to detect whether two or more population distributions differ from one another. (12 Dec 1998) |
| multinomial distribution | Probability distribution associated with the classification of each of a sample of individuals into one of several mutually exclusive and exhaustive categories. (05 Mar 2000) |
| contagious distribution | <epidemiology> Same as an aggregated distribution. (05 Dec 1998) |
| poisson distribution | <epidemiology> The distribution which arises when parasites are distributed at random amongst hosts. (05 Dec 1998) |
| countercurrent distribution | A method of separation of two or more substances by repeated distribution between two immiscible liquid phases that move past each other in opposite directions. It is a form of liquid-liquid chromatography. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sex distribution | The number of males and females in a given population. The distribution may refer to how many men or women or what proportion of either in the group. The population is usually patients with a specific disease but the concept is not restricted to humans and is not restricted to medicine. (12 Dec 1998) |
