The ProteoSeek kit clearly exhibited the highest efficacy with respect to albumin; the amounts depleted from CSF by Vivapure and ProteoExtract kits were lower or negligible, respectively.
Folate concentrations obtained with these kits are lower than those from microbiological assays and show a wide variation between different protein binding assay kits.
Based on the study of Henderson et al. (2013), although the total yield of DNA from this particular kit was lower than extraction with phenol chloroform-based methods, it produces DNA with good quality for PCR amplification from cow rumen contents.
Consistent with these observations, the mRNA levels of the stem cell marker kit were lower in Ras cells and expression became virtually undetectable upon treatment with cytarabine (Figure 5C).
The results from the 1st generation kit were lower in the unattended samples, even after age adjustment.
In two studies in which the scoring method was used for the immunohistochemical staining (Chui et al, 1996; Ko et al, 2003), the immunoreactive score (IRS) of the c-kit expression of benign tumours was lower than that of normal breast tissue and the IRS of the breast cancer was significantly lower than that of the benign tumours.
The number of total reads and viral reads obtained for the RNeasy® kit samples were lower in comparison to the TRIzol® extracted RNA, most likely due to the difference in total RNA available for these samples.
Costs for XTv2 kits are 15% lower than XTv1.
However, in general, the serum and red blood cell folate concentrations measured by these kits are significantly lower than the concentrations obtained from microbiological assays (31, 32), which possibly reflects the higher affinity of the folic acid standard.
In this study, the specificity of the TA-ELISA kit appeared to be lower in sheep (on average 95%) than in goats (99%).
