It can be used when discussing statistical data or research findings related to a collection of specimens in a scientific or academic context.
Example: "The average number of specimens collected during the study was significantly higher than in previous years."
Alternatives: "mean quantity of specimens" or "typical count of specimens".
As a marker for testing activity, the average numbers of specimens received per case identified were used (table 1).
For laboratory specimen processing, the average number of days between receipt of specimens and the reporting of the results can be measured and followed similarly.
Therefore, the number of bands from each lane was counted and average number of bands per specimen was calculated (Table 3).
There was no statistical difference between the average number of Ae. Aegypti specimens caught inside and outside the camp.
The average number of Ae. albopictus specimens per trap caught inside and outside the camp were 1.7 and 16.3, respectively (p<0.0001).
The average number of evaluated nuclei per specimen was 20,000, and the number of nuclei scanned was 120 per second.
The result showed that, in spite of its disordered structure, strength and elastic modulus of a fiber network varied very little statistically, as long as the average number of fibers in the simulated specimen and the degree of fiber orientation are kept constant.
The specimens without visible blood vessel were labelled 0, the specimens with a small number of vessels – as 1, those with the average number of vessels – as 2 and, finally, the specimens with a big number of vessels as 3.
For each specimen, the average number of detectable results was calculated.
Interestingly, the average number of lymph nodes included in the specimen did increase significantly following the implementation of routine fat-clearing techniques by our pathologist in 2007 and robotic and total minimally invasive techniques by our surgeons in 2010 (8.87±5.8 in 1995 2006 vs 14.1±7.8 in 2007 2010, and 20.4±9.4 in 2010-present p<0.0005).
