For us British, the memories, images and stories of 1914-18 seem to have a persistence and a power that eclipse those of the Second World War.
OneGoal has a "persistence rate," as Nelson calls it, of 85 percent, meaning that that's the percentage of students from OneGoal who are making their way through college.
Single-stranded DNA has a persistence length of 3 bases, thus a ssDNA 30-mer is a flexible chain with a random coil size of about 3 nm.
For instance, actin filaments have a persistence length of approx. 10 to 20 µm, for microtubules it is 300-fold higher [4].
Perceptual memory for ambiguous stimuli has a persistence of at least minutes, in the sense that even if an ambiguous stimulus does not reappear until several minutes after disappearing, the previous percept often still recurs [3].
MTX and SSZ showed similar overall persistence while patients receiving LEF had a persistence profile which was similar to those receiving no concurrent DMARDs.
An earlier study suggested that such an AT-rich sequence can have a persistence length less than half that of a GC-rich sequence.
Observation from clinical studies showed that about 80% septic patients had a persistence of infectious focus at the day they died [ 9].
More recently, Borrelia burgdorferi has been demonstrated to have a persistence problem despite antibiotic treatment using mouse and monkey models, which may provide some explanation for persisting chronic Lyme disease observed in some patients.
