Because of this it is not the ideal choice for miRNA discovery but it is useful for profiling conserved miRNAs.
Further, this device could also be useful for the profiling of receptor overexpression in fine needle aspirates for rapid liquid biopsy.
Here, we characterized 15 microsatellite loci for S. platyclados that will be useful for DNA profiling in timber tracking systems and genetic diversity studies.
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) has been demonstrated to be useful for molecular profiling of common solid tumors.
The data that are generated will be useful for the profiling of strains, marker development and the increased understanding of outbreak, sporadic and less studied asymptomatic typhoid carriage infection.
As a large percentage of a genome's protein-coding genes are expressed in the brain ([ 42, 43]), we expected this microarray to be useful for expression profiling in other tissues.
Evaluation of gene expression profiles and the binary distribution of cDNA-AFLP fragments on the chip suggest that the prototype chip developed could be useful for transcript profiling and for the identification of Eucalyptus trees with preferred wood quality traits in commercial breeding programmes.
TVWeek: "In 15 years, broadcast television will only be useful for high-profile live events like the Super Bowl, awards shows and programs like 'American Idol,' Ben Silverman, co-chairman of NBC Entertainment, said during a keynote interview at the TelevisionWeek Upfront Summit in New York.
Such similarity measures have been found to be useful for aCGH profiles [ 32, 33], in particular for tumor specimens as they often contain a varying degree of stromal contamination.
The SILAC-based methodology we used should be useful for further comparative unbiased profiling of the target spectrum of kinase inhibitors with interesting biological effects under conditions that closely mimic those found in cells.
