Exposure to the metabolite exceeded that of the parent compound by a factor of approximately four.
A novel strategy for the selection of an optimal descriptor subset yields QSAR models that enrich active compounds by a factor of up to 38 in independent data sets.
Joseph Yu-shek Cheng, a political science professor at City University of Hong Kong, said the public outrage was compounded by a number of factors, including mounting concern over human rights abuses in China, an aversion to what many perceive as Beijing's growing influence over Hong Kong's affairs, and the fact that Mr. Li had given an interview to Hong Kong television shortly before his death.
Thus, the use of post-mortem brain tissue, compounded by a range of other factors that contribute to between-study variation (e.g. age, race, gender, different microarray platforms and analysis methods), could underpin the relative lack of gene/transcript-level consistency between expression studies [15] [18].
"His suicide was provoked by his clinical depression," Thomson concludes, "which was compounded by a complex web of factors...
The disaster has been compounded by a lack of infrastructure, like levees, to prevent flooding, and other factors such as deforestation, which contributes to landslides.
And it was compounded by a series of disastrous decisions".
Excessive heat and humidity compounded by factors of lethargy, lack of sleep, and the inability to function normally may affect mood and behaviour, increasing mental stress, depression, and suicide, and triggering irritability and risky behaviours such as excessive alcohol consumption, violence, and aggression.
After 40 days, the influent concentration of organic compounds was lowered by a factor of 5; subsequently, significant biodegradation of phenol, ethylbenzene, toluene, quinoline, indole, p-xylene, and o-cresol was observed.
Our studies demonstrated that root compound mixture diluted by a factor of 1000 was still attractive to these larvae.
