When data were grouped by traffic characteristic and PM fraction, only the later significantly modified AA release (p < 0.001) in response to exposure, with coarse PM samples eliciting a greater response than fine PM samples from high-traffic sites.
The full survey elicited a total sample size of 42, with an additional 48 completing a portion of the questions in the Trust and Teamwork Scale – Liberia.
The % agonistic indicates the % of samples eliciting a significant increase in AhR activity compared to the solvent control.
% agonistic and % antagonistic indicates the % of samples eliciting a significantly increase or decrease in XER activity compared to solvent control, which was set to 1. * 2 : XER-estradiol equivalence (XER-EEQ) of the samples eliciting significantly agonistic activity; data calculated by interpolation to the E2 dose response curve using the sigma plot program.
Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) elicited by words (either congruous or incongruous with the previous picture context) and pseudo-words are investigated in 20-month-old toddlers (N = 20) and compared to those elicited in a sample of adults (N = 20), reflecting the final and efficient system, and a sample of toddlers at familial risk for language and learning impairment (LLI, N = 15).
For the description of the population activity elicited by a sample dot we used a generalized Mexican hat distribution (second derivative of the Gaussian distribution) of the following form: <img src="http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article/asset?id=info?doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0009918.e001.PNG" class= inline-graphic"/> where b is the position parameter and a the dilation parameter.
Preferences were elicited from a sample of the Dutch general public (N = 549) by means of a ranking task.
*P < 0.05 **P < 0.01 The study showed that responsibility loadings elicited from a sample of dentists were similar to those from previous reports based on expert panels demonstrating convergent validity over time and method of elicitation.
CYP1A protein levels and EROD activities in skin of seal pups from the BC locations and from Puget Sound were relatively low, possibly reflecting contaminant levels that were not high enough to elicit a response, a small sample size, or methodological limitations.
An algorithm has been generated to derive utilities from the KHQ by eliciting preferences from a sample of UI patients [ 31].
Most samples elicited a significant positive response on Salmonella strains TA98, YG1041, and YG1042 with and without S9 metabolic activation; however, TA100 failed to detect mutagenicity in any sample.
