Neurologist Michio Hirano and his colleagues at Columbia University duplicated the procedure in three kinds of cells--brain cells from Alzheimer's patients and healthy people, as well as cells dubbed r0 that lack mitochondria.
Blood hematocrit and Hb concentrations were determined in duplicate following the procedures outlined by McIntyre et al. [ 45].
All blanks and duplicate samples were analyzed during the procedure.
For quality control purposes, blanks and duplicates samples were analysed during the procedure.

After five repetitions of centrifuging, pipetting off the supernatant liquid, and replacing with distilled water, the procedure was duplicated, replacing the distilled water with ethanol.
Dr. Tomoaki Kato, a transplant specialist who led the team of at least nine doctors, said he hoped the procedure would be duplicated for other cancer patients and those with aneurysms or other problems associated with the abdominal aorta.
Mapping and polymorphic site calling were conducted as described in the resequencing analysis above except that the procedure for filtering duplicated reads using Picard was eliminated because we did not amplify DNA library by PCR.
Considering that the procedure to eliminate duplicated records eliminated also molecules having ΔT ≤ 1 °C measured in different experiments, we corrected the observed distribution of values for ΔT = 0 and 1 by using the same number of counts as observed for ΔT = [2, 3] °C interval.
We chose therefore the equal-frequency algorithm, which sorts all values and then divides the range into a user-defined number of intervals so that every interval contains the same number of values (note that special care must be taken to treat identical values, which can potentially spread over several intervals. We adjust the procedure so that duplicate values belong to a single interval).
