In general, any practical quantity of target that can be applied to different mixture samples is more desirable, but it cannot be reliably approximated due to the propagation of errors and competitive binding among ligands from any PMFS.
In the experimental approach, a representative mixture sample possessing candidate ligands with moderate differences in both their quantities and affinities is needed, and the practical quantity of the target can be slightly higher than an optimized one to enhance universal applicability to different mixture samples.
This practical quantity of SMPP was just slightly higher than that estimated by the experimental approach with a PMFS of a representative mixture, but was over sixteen times that estimated by the parameter-dependent approach with Mixture A via the pooling of individual compounds (additional file 9).
This practical quantity of SMPP was about four times the sum of the SMPP minima estimated via the parameter-dependent approach using linear responses by HPLC-MS-SIM analyses of purified biotin derivatives, but was over seven times the sum of the SMPP minima estimated from parameters of linear response with PMFSs (data not given).
There is a practical limit on the quantity of information that can reliably be stored in a physical label space: there is no limit to the amount of information that can be linked to that label.
Thus, the single-ion activity coefficient, which is defined by Equation (2), is not just thermodynamically well defined in a formal theoretical sense, but it is also a thermodynamically well-measurable quantity in a practical sense.
As a practical matter, most eat vast quantities of vegetables.
Obtaining commercial quantities is a practical impossibility — spiders are loners and require a diet of live insects; some are cannibals.
As a practical matter, given the limited quantities Sony has been able to manufacture, the PlayStation 3 will surely remain sold out throughout the holiday season.
The biopiles are a practical approach to remediate large quantities of contaminated soil in the Antarctic and already 370 t have been reused in a building foundation.
