At that time, only limited amounts of tissue were available, preventing the isolation of the virus.
Also, as the cancer is in the brain, it is not possible to remove large amounts of tissue during surgery.
The removal of extensive amounts of tissue, including crucial landmarks, complicates prosthesis design.
For example, hibernating mammals store large amounts of tissue fat before the onset of dormancy, and migrating birds do the same before departure.
The cardiologists then cut open their chests and removed small amounts of tissue from their heart to use later to construct new veins.
Melatonin appeared to be restoring the amounts of tissue MDA and GSH back to about control levels.
Chronic wounds are the result of excessive amounts of tissue destructive proteases such as human neutrophil elastase (HNE).
If scientists confirm that satellite expression is highly concentrated only in cancer cells in adult tissue, they may be able to diagnose cancer accurately from very small amounts of tissue, such as the cells collected during needle biopsies.
It is most often a sign of infection but can be present whenever there is tissue destruction, as, for example, from a severe burn or when large amounts of tissue have died because of lack of blood supply.
This method uses small amounts of tissue, so is useful when material is limited, and is easy to process large numbers of samples at once.
In routine clinical practice, genetic alterations in GBMs are identified using several disparate techniques that consume already limited amounts of tissue and add to overall testing costs.
