The phrase "a decrease was noticed" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when reporting observations or findings, particularly in contexts such as research, analysis, or performance reviews.
Example: "In the latest quarterly report, a decrease was noticed in customer satisfaction ratings compared to the previous quarter."
Alternatives: "a decline was observed" or "a reduction was detected."
The ultimate stress values increased over a period of 30 days, following which a decrease was noticed, indicating the onset of degradation following a short initial period of curing [48].
Phenol content increased significantly in plants at different amendment rates (20, 40, and 60% MSWVC); however, a decrease was noticed in 80 and 100% MSWVC indicating failure of plant defense system at higher doses at 45 DAG (Fig. 2).
No significant inhibition of leptin expression was observed using siHif-1α alone, although a trend towards a decrease was noticed.
However, a decrease was noticed in our experiment indicating that cytosolic RhoGDI2 concentration is influenced by other factors like posttranslational modification or turn-over rate.
Modification in pigment structure and content were previously reported in plants treated with γ-rays, such as in lettuce (Lactuca sativa) where seed exposure to doses ranging from 2 30 Gy enhanced the level of photosynthetic pigments, while at higher doses (up to 70 Gy), a decrease was noticed [ 44].
By contrast, the activity remained unchanged with ROSI and was enhanced 1.5 to 2.0-fold by MURA and TESA in PHH, while a decreased was noticed following ROSI and MURA treatment in HepaRG cells.
Protein content increased significantly in plants with increasing rate of MSWVC (A, B, C, and D) compared to control; however, a significant decrease was noticed in 100% MSWVC (E) amendment at both 45 and 65 DAG.
A marked decrease was noticed for the value of the unconfined compressive strength.
As depicted in Fig. 5, the adsorption of all six dyes showed maximum colour removal (97 99 %) up to pH 8, and thereafter, a significant decrease was noticed.
Thereafter, a further decrease was noticed in tumor and healthy tissues (Figure 6).
Particularly, maximal uptake of 3.8% was reached after an incubation period of 10 min. Thereafter a time-dependent decrease was noticed with the bound activity reaching a value of about 1.6% after 6 h of incubation (Figure 2D).
