Definition

cell population consisting of only dead cells

Semi-Formal Definition:

every instance of β€˜dead cell population’ is defined as exactly an instance of β€˜cell population’ that β€˜has member part at some time’ some (β€˜cell’ that β€˜has quality’ some β€˜dead’) and β€˜has member part at some time’ only (β€˜cell’ that β€˜has quality’ some β€˜dead’)

Examples

  • the subpopulation of propidium iodide-positive CHO cells identified by flow cytometry within a cell culture; the population of trypan blue-positive cells counted in a bioreactor sample during a cell viability measurement process; the population of nonviable mammalian cells separated from a mixed cell population by fluorescence-activated cell sorting using a membrane-integrity viability stain;

Formal Axioms

First-Order Logic Definition

DeadCellPopulation(x) ↔ CellPopulation(x) ∧ βˆƒy(Cell(y) ∧ βˆƒq(Dead(q) ∧ hasQuality(y, q)) ∧ hasMemberPartAtSomeTime(x, y)) ∧ βˆ€z(hasMemberPartAtSomeTime(x, z) β†’ (Cell(z) ∧ βˆƒr(Dead(r) ∧ hasQuality(z, r))))

EquivalentTo: constr:CellPopulation and bfo:has_member_part_at_some_time some (constr:Cell and constr:hasQuality some constr:Dead) and bfo:has_member_part_at_some_time only (constr:Cell and constr:hasQuality some constr:Dead)
