The 406 sequence pair average was included as a control indicating the diversity within the 29 sequence population along the alignment.
Luciferase activity of the cell lysate was insignificant in TGFβ1 - conditions for both peptide solutions and a control, indicating affinity peptides are incapable of binding TGFβ1 receptors.
The bioconvertibility of microalgal biomass sonicated for 15 min or longer was comparable to starch as a control, indicating a high feasibility of using microalgae for fermentative bioenergy production.
However, Sec-AldO does not contain covalently bound FAD, unlike purified wild-type AldO, which was included as a positive control (indicated by an arrowhead) in this immunoblot experiment.
Use of a rabbit IgG antibody as a negative control indicated that the xCT staining was not due to non-specific binding of immunoglobulins.
However, probing the arrays with ubiquitin as a loading control indicated that the cDNAs for these cell lines were under-represented on the MTE array.
Immunoblot analysis using anti 115d8 antibodies revealed the presence of two reactive protein bands in the human MCF7 cell line, used as a positive control (indicated by arrows in Figure 3 lane 1).
The intensity of the products (relative to an internal control) indicated variable levels of expression in different tissues.
The low ratio of firefly to renilla luciferase expression relative to a scrambled RNA control indicated proper siRNA functioning by the triangle nanoparticles.
A post hoc pooled analysis with a one-way hypothesis for both interventions versus control indicated a significant difference between the groups favouring the intervention (p = 0.039).
