The mixing mechanisms in the store and the efficiency of storage have been quantified using appropriate dimensionless factors.
Optical density values were quantified using appropriate software (NIH Image J version 1.29, U.S. National Institutes of Health).
Optical density values were quantified using appropriate software (NIH Image J version 1.29, U.S. National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA).
Inflammatory mediators in rat sera or cell supernatants were quantified using appropriate enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations for prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (R&D Systems Europe, Lille, France), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) (Tebu, Le Perray-en Yveline, France), TNF-α, and IL-1β (Biosource, Montrouge, France).
Other analytes can be quantified using an appropriate enriching polymer and bandpass filter centred on an absorption peak for the analyte in question or an analyte family.
Monitoring and analysis of trace contaminants such as pharmaceuticals and pesticides require the preservation of the samples before they can be quantified using the appropriate analytical methods.
This somatic sensitization can be quantified using VFF to stimulate the somatotopically appropriate abdominal region and measuring the abdominal withdrawal response.
pS6 immunoreactivity within the dorsal column was quantified using an appropriate image-processing program (FIJI, available at http://fiji.sc/About).sc/About
Detection of an appropriate colour was quantified using binary definition of colour images as displayed on the screen.
Variation in habitat niche among species was quantified using multiple correspondence analysis, which is appropriate for categorical variables (Tenenhaus & Young, 1985).
