The authors model the distribution of alignment scores for spurious alignments so they can use a map specific cutoff for determining alignment significance.
Considering a probability-weighted distribution of alignments removes sensitivity to alignment errors, properly accommodates regions of alignment uncertainty, and increases the accuracy of functional element prediction.
The distribution of alignment scores for comparisons between the outbred stocks and the inbred/wild mice (mean alignment score: 0.564, range: 0.204 – 0.953, Additional file 9) was similar to that among only the inbred/wild mice.
The anisotropic scattering distribution indicates alignment of the nanotubes.
Optical images of the composites revealed uniform distribution and alignment of the CNFs in the direction of the electric field.
One can see that the nanotubes array inherits many features from the nanorods array, such as the diameter, size distribution, and alignment.
During the chemical etching, the nanotubes array inherits many features from the preformed nanorods array, such as the diameter, size distribution, and alignment.
Dispersion, distribution, and alignment of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in polycarbonate (PC) composites are quantified by means of statistical analysis of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images.
The distribution and alignment of melt electrospun PCL fibers can be controlled to a certain degree using patterned collectors to create large numbers of scaffolds with shaped macroporous architectures.
The fluorescence images of thin sections of 3D constructs from static and perfused cultures confirmed enhanced cell viability, uniform cell distribution and alignment due to nutrient provision from inside the 3D structure.
