The benchmarks test the ability of tested methods to retrieve acceptable hits to proteins in the query set from the protein database.
The cofilin variants allowed a more direct analysis of cofilin overexpression effects on the organization of the actin cytoskeleton and changes of the migratory ability of tested human colon adenocarcinoma cells.
In these trials, selection under meaningful conditions of seed infestation is especially important, as plant characteristics measured in monocultures had no explanatory value for the competitive ability of tested lines under heavy weed infestation (Haefele et al., 2004).
The researchers studied the ability of test subjects to recognize the smell of androstenone, a pheromone and component of body odor.
These items were all intended to measure the writing ability of test-takers.
To compare the ability of tests of visual function to detect the presence of eye disease.
The ability of test samples to scavenge DPPH is assessed on the bases of their IC50 too [35].
Specifically, sensitivity to change referred to 'the ability of test to detect change, regardless of noise, relevance or meaningfulness' and responsiveness 'the ability of a test to detect worthwhile and 'real' improvements over time'.
Significant (P < 0.001) reduction in free acidity in all compounds except compound 3a indicated the ability of test compounds to inhibit secretion of hydrochloric acid.
To assess the ability of test compounds to bind membrane ergosterol in Candida cells, the method as described by (Escalante et al. 2008) was adapted.
