E. coli removal reached four orders of magnitude for both periods (I and II); these values of bacterial removal are comparable to those in the range of 3 to 4 log units as reported by Macauley et al. (2006).
Based on these values of θ, both populations appeared to have grown substantially following divergence.
Where demographic information (age, education, income) and population health status were employed as independent variables in calculating stated-preference values, we conducted a sensitivity analysis by employing both the values of these variables in the original survey sample, as well as values based on the 1996 Canadian census and the 1996 National Population Health Survey [ 40].
The lattice parameters are calculated to be a = 3.266 Å and c = 5.229 Å; both the absolute values of these lattice constants and their ratio (c/a = 1.601) are consistent with a wurtzite crystal structure.
Both these values are in the range of those observed in β-thalassemia carriers (Giordano et al, 1999), indicating that gene transfer with GLOBE in thalassemic cells provides transgene expression at therapeutic level.
Both these values exceeded the predetermined study threshold of noninferiority which was −12%, thus establishing inferiority of the switch strategy.
Both of these values are one order of magnitude larger than mass specific peak power densities of earlier reported direct glucose fuel cells using proton exchange membranes.
The highest particle number concentrations were in the 300-nm size range [144,623 particles/L for MWCNT-OH and 156,336 particles/L for CB; both of these values exceeded the upper limit of quantification of the HHPC-6 (70,000 particles/L), followed by the 500-nm range (65,402 particles/L for MWCNT-OH and 54,242 particles/L for CB].
Both of these values were an order of magnitude higher than the BMCL10 estimated using DO mice.
Both of these values are well above the median values of 645 cm of intraoperative blood loss and less than one unit of packed red blood cells for intraoperative blood transfusion recorded for 496 patients undergoing hepatic resection at our own institution [ 11].
