The phrase "as fold decrease" is not correct in written English.
It seems to be an incomplete expression and lacks clarity without additional context.
Example: "The efficiency of the process improves as fold decrease occurs in the material."
Alternatives: "as the folds reduce" or "as the folds diminish".
The optimised coating produced at 1040 °C for 3 hours with powder containing 6.84 wt% activator content exhibited better corrosion resistance than the substrate in typical PEMFC cathode and anode environments respectively as well as about six fold decrease in the contact resistance of the substrate at 150 N/cm2.
Each reaction was run in triplicate and with a positive control (genomic DNA) to confirm the validity of the amplification process; relative expression values for rat Adhesion GPCRs are displayed as a fold decrease relative to the detected maximum expression, arbitrarily set at 1 (see Additional file 2).
Mutations of the residues Ser404 and Lys172 also resulted in the reduced activity of FadD13; however, the magnitude of reduction in these cases was not as drastic, with a reduction of 39.2% and 63.5% in the activity as well as 1.6 fold and 2.7 fold decrease in the Kcat values, respectively in comparison to the native protein.
In the first phase of our screen, we analyzed genes based on the criteria that they were significantly reduced in the Foxa2 null embryo (≥ 1.5 fold decrease, as detected by the U74Av2 array) and did not have previously published expression patterns as early as E7.5 (n = 106, after removing redundancies; Additional File 2).
Cybrids transiently overexpressing Cterm displayed increased cell viability after 48 h of incubation in GPM (up to 4 fold as compared to mock transformants) and decreased apoptosis after 24 h (up to 3.5 fold decrease as compared to mock transformants) (Fig 3A, B and supplementary Fig S5).
Results are reported as fold increase or fold decrease relative to the intensity levels of basal FM steady-state autophagy conditions (that is, assigning fluorescence intensity of FM = 1), thereby reporting relative impact of different time points and conditions.
Following infection, a 1.68 fold decrease ensued as compared with uninfected macrophages (5.14±0.77 µM, p<0.01) which was significantly increased by Berberine chloride (2.5 and 10 µM) to 8.61±2.60 µM (p<0.01) and 7.18±2.25 µM respectively, attaining levels comparable with uninfected macrophages (Figure 2E).
The results were again of note, indicating as they did a 30 fold decrease in the expression of (p = 0.01) in IDCs.
