For genes without an Arabidopsis homolog with a clear identifier, a unique identifier was created that was consistent with the gene function.
According to Lewin Zwerdling, "there is a significant uptick in percent of consumers following a specific eating pattern...part of this is so consumers have rules". As more people learn to eat with these black and white nutritional guidelines, it is no wonder they crave a clear cut "healthy" identifier on their packaged foods.
Among the women's focus groups, sources of public identification, including medical alert bracelets, were discussed and perceived as very useful to have, as it was a clear and easy identifier of their health condition to others.
Uniqueness of data is necessary for integration of multi-level data and to achieve this, all data in the database must be internally consistent, but must also be consistent with external databases with clear identifiers.
Cross comparisons of published data sets are frequently further hampered by the use of different gene identifiers (e.g. gene sequence name versus transcript sequence name), and the absence of a clear indication of the WormBase version used.
A clear distinction is made between routing address and the identity of a node (a unique identification tag) as the routing address is dynamic and changes with node movement, contrasting with the node identifier which is always the same.
Both industries' types of data carry simple messages: a time stamp, an identifier and payload information.
This includes not only data that contain clear personal identifiers, such as names, but also data that can indirectly identify an individual [ 8].
Because HCUP data is secondary administrative data without clear patient identifiers, it has been determined that the data is exempt from ethical approval.
It is not clear whether Apple itself will stop relying on the UDID as a unique identifier for iAds, Game Center or other services.
Importantly, using the gene name as an identifier, it is clear that multiple probesets are present for many genes but that these replicate probesets may not always generate similar detection rates.
