Experimental evidence is presented which indicates that the lungs play a vital role in rapidly eliminating a high proportion of blood-borne cancer cells in the adult individual.
This means that the radio-therapy must be eliminating some of the new primary risk by destroying pre-existing tumours, and perhaps preventing cancers by eliminating a large proportion of breast epithelial cells.
Combined, these factors could account for reductions in SR for U.S. African Americans compared with U.S. whites by eliminating a larger proportion of male fetuses between conception and birth.
The PHA positive control is a marker of immune mediated anergy and serves to eliminate a large proportion of otherwise false negative test results by classifying them instead as "indeterminate".

The wide-spread introduction of currently available prophylactic HPV vaccines would reduce, but not eliminate, a large proportion of high-grade cervical lesions.
Prostratin has been shown in previous studies to be a protein kinase C activator [ 5] and effective in the treatment of HIV infected patients, by acting as a latent HIV1 activator, enabling anti-viral drugs to eliminate a large proportion of viral reservoirs in the body [ 6, 7].
Further, since duplicate marking softwares, such as Picard Tools, designate duplicates simply based on the 5′-most position of mapped reads, it was estimated that duplicate removal would eliminate a greater proportion of reads with unique sequences than true duplicate (i.e., identical) reads.
