In the search for suitable sample matrices, bovine hair has shown to be an attractive sample matrix for prolonged detectability of residues of anabolic steroids and beta-agonists.
Saliva sampling is an attractive alternative to blood sampling, as discussed above.
Self-triggered sampling is an attractive paradigm for closed-loop control over energy-constrained wireless sensor networks (WSNs) because it may give substantial communication savings.
Expression profiling using peripheral whole blood samples is an attractive method for biomarker detection.
Using molecular techniques on archival tissue samples is an attractive approach to identify the etiology of IFI.
The use of DBS on filter paper is an attractive alternative method for storing samples at room temperature and easily transporting them.
Pooling samples is an attractive option to maximize sequencer output; however, due to sequencer error rate, reliable differentiation of true positives from false positives is generally difficult [ 8] unless specialized software is employed [ 9, 10].
The direct labeling of a protein of interest with organic dyes in heterogeneous samples is an attractive option,,, but so far, the genetic tags of these strategies are of similar size as fluorescent proteins and many of the dyes themselves are cell impermeable.
Thus, the new development of accurate and quantitative RNA sequencing technology is an attractive alternative for characterizing a biological sample using a single measurement, revealing both the candidate driver genes and activated pathways for this disease.
If similar safety and efficacy can be demonstrated in a large patient sample this protocol is an attractive alternative to our algorithm, especially because it lends itself to computerization.
