Because Tay – Sachs disease was one of the first autosomal recessive genetic disorders for which there was an enzyme assay test ( prior to polymerase chain reaction testing methods ), it was intensely studied as a model for all such diseases, and researchers sought evidence of a selective process.

Because of the very small fusion reaction probability ( the fusion cross section is ~ 0. 3 – 0. 6 pb = ( 3 – 6 )× 10 < sup >− 41 </ sup > m < sup > 2 </ sup >) the experiment took 4 months and involved a beam dose of 4 × 10 < sup > 19 </ sup > calcium ions that had to be shot at the californium target to produce the first recorded event believed to be the synthesis of ununoctium.

Because the reaction had been initiated by trace oxygen contamination in their apparatus, the experiment was, at first, difficult to reproduce.

Because tetrahydrofolate, the product of this reaction, is the active form of folate in humans, inhibition of DHFR can cause functional folate deficiency.

Because of the peacefulness of the Potawatomi, they continued to co-exist with the settlers for many years after the Removal Act, until the autumn of 1840 when General Hugh Brady removed about 250 Indians of Hillsdale County and Homer to Miami County, Kansas in reaction to homesteader complaints to the Van Buren Administration.

" Because of strong video sales, the studio continued to make these films in spite of negative critical reaction ; 2001's Cinderella II: Dreams Come True received a rare zero-percent rating from the review-aggregating website Rotten Tomatoes.

Because of this design, having no significant movement of heavy mechanical parts during the firing cycle, the recoil produced is only the ' true ' recoil, equivalent to the equal and opposite reaction to the pellet and air volume's acceleration up the bore.

Because mast cells play a role in allergic reactions, the symptoms of mastocytosis often are similar to the symptoms of an allergic reaction.

Because of this, a reasonably sized gun-type weapon would suffer nuclear reaction before the masses of plutonium would be in a position for a full-fledged explosion to occur.

Because carbon dioxide is released at a faster rate through the acid-base reaction than through fermentation, breads made by chemical leavening are called quick breads.

Because the process takes place through a chain reaction, the oxidation reaction has a period when it is relatively slow, before it suddenly speeds up.

Lance Hill offers Hoover ’ s reaction, which was sent to the field offices of the Bureau in Louisiana: “ Because of the potential for violence indicated, you are instructed to immediately initiate an investigation of the DDJ for Defense and Justice .” As was eventually exposed in the late 1970s, under its COINTELPRO program, the FBI was involved in many illegal activities to spy on and undermine organizations it deemed “ a threat to the American way ”.

Because God is what He is, the laws of the universe, material and spiritual, are what they are.

Because of these involvements in the matter at stake, Boniface lacked the impartiality that is supposed to be an essential qualification for the position of arbiter, and in retrospect that would seem to be sufficient reason why the English embassies to the Curia proved so fruitless.

Because of the means of publication -- science-fiction magazines and cheap paperbacks -- and because dystopian science fiction is still appearing in quantity the full range and extent of this phenomenon can hardly be known, though one fact is evident: the science-fiction imagination has been immensely fertile in its extrapolations.

Because administration of the forest highway system is a responsibility of the Secretary of Commerce with maintenance provided by the States and counties, this Development Program for the National Forests does not include estimates of the funds needed to maintain the forest highway system nor to construct the additions to it that are needed.

Because the bobbin-to-cone winding process is a relatively high-cost operation for the mill, the almost complete automation provided by the Uniconer can mean important economies in textile production, at the same time upgrading quality.

Because of its importance, and because the lack of price competition is well recognized, the industry is under considerable public pressure not to raise its price any more than could be justified by cost increases.

Because community not severalty of property is the law of nature no man can assert an absolutely unalterable right to what is his.

Because of undesirable flavors, odors, colors, and generally low palatability associated with radiation treatment of this magnitude, the inactivation of enzymes is best accomplished prior to irradiation by the conventional heat-processing methods of blanching.

Because agricultural activities are seasonal and the areas of production and harvest of many foods are widely scattered geographically, and because of the high cost of transporting bulk food items any substantial distance to a central processing location, the use of large central processing stations, where low-cost radiation facilities approaching the megawatt range might be utilized, is inherently impracticable.
