Before statistical analysis of urine samples, patients were further excluded from this study if fewer than two SCr values were available for the duration of the admission (and not before early death) or if no urine specimens were collected throughout the study period.
If no single specimen yields a full sequence, the genome might be recovered by combining DNA from several individuals.
This is particularly relevant if no whole brain specimens are available, and therefore multistage scanning and registration is not possible.
Testing was stopped if specimens showed no torsional resistance by 30 40° of rotation.
The Clinical EM Laboratory is able to work with sub-optimal specimens, if no glutaraldehyde fixed tissue is available.
Our results support the use of optimized FFPE cancer samples as an alternative source of DNA for WGS cancer diagnostics if FF specimens are not available.
Even if the specimens had left the lab, they would be harmless, Bréchot says.
If two specimens were taken at the same depth, they have separate entries in the database.
For cracking age, if the specimens have the same w/c ratio, the difference between NC specimens and RC specimens was very small.
It is safe assume that if more specimens are used then, the trend will be similar to the expected trend.
