Sentence examples for instead of quantification from inspiring English sources

Given that there are available ELISA commercial assays to detect bovine IFN γ we used this methodology instead of quantification of IFN γ mRNA by RT-qPCR.

The use of alternative splicing isoforms as potential biomarkers, therefore, offers a new opportunity to use the detectability instead of quantification of biomarker peptides, for the peptides that may map to unique alternative splicing isoforms specific to cancer.

However, dPCR has the potential to provide absolute quantification instead of relative quantification.

The results for these groups were expressed as cycle threshold (Ct) or as 1/Ct, where relative abundance was discussed for each reaction, instead of real quantification, as for the Methanosarcinaeae and Methanobacterium, where results could be expressed as gene copies per microliter of DNA extract.

Then, the control strategy would consist in the recruitment of animals with low or undetectable PVL using p24 serology as a low-cost method, instead of PVL quantification.

The restriction of the targeted approach comes with the advantages of higher sensitivity, absolute instead of relative quantification and straight‐forward compound identification (Patti et al., 2012; Tzoulaki et al., 2014).

The simulation results (such as the flow depth and flow velocity) are probabilistic distributions of the outputs, instead of deterministic quantifications.

However, small sample sizes, the use of echocardiography to estimate the thickness of pericardial fat instead of direct volumetric quantification, and the lack of adjustment of important covariates limit the interpretation of these prior studies.

In this pioneering approach, Takasaki et al. combined QD labelling (originally presented as fluorophore labelling concept) with FI-ICP-MS instead of FLD for quantification of QD derived metallic compounds (Cd, Te, Se) and other elements.

Quantification Because every cluster of transcripts has a unique set of sig-mers, which are the k-mers that never appear in other transcript clusters, every cluster can be independently quantified by RNA-Skim, resulting in a set of smaller independent quantification problems, instead of one huge whole transcriptome quantification problem in other approaches.

A direct comparison of both studies is not possible due to numerous differences in the study designs including different input material, sample preparation, clinical numbers, and the application of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) instead of qPCR-based quantifications.
