The phrase "amount of variants" is not correct in standard written English; it should be "number of variants." You can use "number of variants" when discussing the count or quantity of different versions or types of something.
Example: "The study analyzed the number of variants in the genetic data collected from the participants."
Alternatives: "quantity of variants" or "count of variants."
Increasing complexity of products and safety regulations combined with an increasing amount of variants complicates the process of safety analysis within systems engineering.
First, we removed substantial amount of variants from our analysis.
These analyses generate massive amount of variants, among which there can be a high number of false positives.
In order to limit the amount of variants presented in the paper, we decided to use a stepwise presentation.
To assess this parameter for each potential drug target, we counted the amount of variants present in the same proteome.
This is a very important feature, especially when using WGS where the amount of variants can be very large.
The reduction in the amount of variant opsin produced in vitro compared with wild type indicates a possible disease mechanism.
We also want to acknowledge that the in vitro MMR assay was carried out using parameters, which maintain the amount of variant protein at optimal levels for detecting even the slightest repair.
Under these proteolysis conditions, in which the amount of variant protomers was kept identical in both hybrid and homotetrameric S52P TTR (Fig 4D), wild-type subunits were not cleaved, confirming the resistance to trypsin digestion of wild-type TTR in this state (see Materials and Methods) and demonstrating that S52P variant TTR is more susceptible to proteolysis.
Percentages indicate relative amounts of variants at each stage.
In an early-stage trial, the prototype, which is 100,000 times more sensitive than previous methods, was able to detect tiny amounts of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD -causing particles, known as prions, in human blood, the scientists said.
