Population isolated

Europeans, Middle Easterners, and most Central and South Asians (3) East Asians (4) groups indigenous to the Americas (5) Pacific Islanders and (6) a group consisting of the Kalash, an isolated population in northwest Pakistan. 

In the study of the isolated population of Tristan da Cunha, the activating CysLTj p.GSOOS variant and the inactivating CysLTj variant receptor were both... 

Kuru occurred in a small isolated population in the highlands of New Guinea. Presenting signs and symptoms were ataxia, shivering and inabihty to perform normal movements. The disease was due to the custom of eating the brain of a relative who had recently died. The disease has now almost disappeared with the end of the custom. 

Grow isolated populations for 1 week and verify DNA content by comparing isolated tetraploid populations to the original DLDl cells. Repeat cell sorting if necessary. 

Rare autosomal recessive diseases also occur with high frequency among genetically isolated populations due to inbreeding.

Stratified or isolated populations that tend to mate within the group. 

Cell populations can be enriched using a number of physicochemical methods based on characteristics, such as density, size, and volume. Centrifugation using density gradients is typically applied to isolate populations with similar characteristics. Cells obtained using these methods can be further authenticated using specific antibodies that react to markers on the cell surface, allowing the identification of cell subtypes.

Escamilla et al. (86), in a study of bipolar mood disorder in an isolated population from Costa Rica, using micro satellite markers spaced 6cM intervals across chromosome 18, concluded that LD methods will be useful in this case in a larger sample. The Finnish and Costa Rican populations are considered ideal, since they are relatively homogeneous and show LD over a wider recombination distance than other populations. However, LD is routinely seen for closely linked loci and around disease genes in all populations. With sufficiently closely linked markers, including haplotype level analyses (61,62), association mapping should be a powerful and informative approach in many, and possibly most, populations (57).

The Hawaii tests permitted the conclusions (5) that the male annihilation technique is best adapted for use on whole or well-isolated populations. Its possible usefulness to combat incipient oriental fruit fly infestations whenever they may occur in continental United States was also suggested by this research. 

In the NVE microcanonical ensemble all the systems have the same energy each system is individually isolated. Populations of various structures were obtained by long runs of MD. 

Isolated populations are a collection of habitats without migration or dispersal between them. These isolated populations act as if they are self-contained. Contaminants in one isolated patch do not affect dynamics in other patches. Conversely, once extinction has occurred in a patch, recolonization does not occur.
