None of these repeats exhibited hallmarks of IS elements, and they were therefore discarded.
Rescoring with Emodel did not produce any improvements to the ranking and was therefore discarded again.
The use of Agar gel with EDTA addition has been therefore discarded.
PA fibre was not suitable for diethylhexylphthalate extraction and showed poor repeatability for the heavier phthalates, and was therefore discarded.
According to the considerations above, these outliers were assumed to be the results from clast-clast collisions and were therefore discarded from the dataset.
Although these jumps might have been real, the lack of corroboration between sensors made verification impossible and data from these tracks were therefore discarded.
It is worth to remember here that, using a 7×7 kernel matrix, a 3-pixel wide border of the image is not filtered, and related pixels are therefore discarded during filtering.
The other putative binding cavities were therefore discarded.
The analysis showed that the third base was saturated, and this base was therefore discarded for subsequent phylogenetic analyses.
The mfold results showed that some of the new miRNAs identified by miRDeep could not form typical secondary structures, and these were therefore discarded.
Note that pseudoword reading data from one subject (number 15) did not fit the connectivity model (p = 0.04; Table S2) and were therefore discarded.
