Our method utilizes a custom-designed set of features that are based on raw predictions and aggregated raw values and recognizes various types of disorder.
Expression levels were quantified using the NanoString nCounter (NanoString, UCL, London) with a custom-designed probe set of 40 genes (Supplementary file 1).
For this purpose, we used a custom-designed experimental set-up that prevented above- and below-ground contact and blocked chemical and light-mediated signals normally exchange by plants.
Therefore, to test for target redundancy within the miR-30 family, we used a custom-designed probe-set to simultaneously inhibit all 5 members of the family: miR-30a, b, c, d and e.
Two microsatellite marker sets (a commercial genomewide set and a custom-designed fine-resolution mapping set) were used to generate 118,420 and 22,500 initial genotypes and 10,088 and 8,328 duplicates, respectively.
Intra-abdominal pressure was measured transvesically using a custom-designed IAP monitoring set (BBraun, Zaventem, Belgium) in 10 critically ill patients at risk for IAHT.
Genotyping was performed using the 5′ nuclease Taqman allelic discrimination assay using the manufacturer's predesigned primer/probe sets (rs5277, rs5275, rs2206593, rs689470) or custom-designed and manufactured primer/probe sets (rs689466, rs20417, rs2745557, rs2066826, rs4648310) (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA).
In addition to encompassing the 173 DKG/DGS Requirements of Breast Centres relevant to DKG/DGS certification, the custom-designed, XML-based data set structure also accommodated data relevant to EUSOMA European Society of Breast Cancer Specialistss) certification of breast centres [ 13] as well as additional items required by German law.
Thirty sets of custom-designed oligonucleotide primer were used.
To evaluate the score of pulmonary inflammation from H&E stained tissues, inflammation was quantified by a set of custom-designed criteria as described previously40.
It merges the benefits of standard and off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and communication technologies with a minimum set of custom-designed signal acquisition hardware that is mandatory to fulfill all application requirements.
