The encodings are sparse, rarely overlapping, and have approximately equal numbers of forward and reverse ("shadow") encodings.
The superiority of the developed uniform Au nanodots/ITO substrate was confirmed by comparison with the peak intensities of p-aminothiophenol/Au nanodots/ITO substrate with the SERS of p-aminothiophenol/non-homogeneous Au NPs/ITO; the two fabricated substrates have approximately equal numbers of Au nanodots of the same size over a large area (Fig. 8).
In giving recommendations for boundary changes over the years, the Committee has considered various factors, including using hill ridges, rivers and roads as boundaries rather than arbitrarily drawn lines; and the need for electoral divisions to have approximately equal numbers of voters so that electors' votes carry the same weight regardless of where they cast their ballots.
This non-homogeneous SERS-active substrate was fabricated by the immobilization of Au NPs, which have approximately equal numbers of Au nano-dots distributed over an area with the same size as that of the nano-dot array.
The vast majority of RCTs have approximately equal numbers in each arm.
The tertiles had approximately equal numbers of patients: tertile 1 (39 patients), tertile 2 (39 patients), and tertile 3 (40 patients).
The D × P and I × P crosses had approximately equal numbers of males and females and had a total of 282 and 322 mice, respectively.
Phase 2 and phase 3 trials are conducted worldwide; most countries except Russia have approximately equal numbers of phase 2 and 3 trials.
This ensures that each participating surgeon and both surgical procedures will have approximately equal numbers of patients allocated to the 4 groups.
The sample size of 25 for diabetic subjects was a convenience sample with a goal of having approximately equal numbers of subjects in four diabetes duration bins: 6 13, 14 26, 27 39, and 40 52 weeks.
The cohort had approximately equal numbers of African-Americans and whites, men and women, adults 18 to 24 years old and 25 to 30 years old, and participants with more than and less than high school education [ 7].
