The mean quantity of T. forsythensis also was significantly lower in the High Aggregation Adherence groups.
The draining of swamps and the clearing of forests perceptibly effect the evaporation from the earth, and of course the mean quantity of moisture suspended in the air.
Infection intensities, measured in zoospore genomic equivalents per swab (GE swab−1), were calculated by multiplying the mean quantity output of Bsal positive qPCRs by 120, to account for the dilution between swab and PCR, as described by Hudson et al.31.31
Mean quantity of forage by land cover type, location (district) and season were compared.
The volume fraction was assessed according to the mean quantity of gonad tissue occupied by the gonad tissue cellular component encountered in the four independent fields.
The mean quantity of extracted RNA per 6 mL ranged from 0.35 ± 0.12 μg for CD56+ cells to 9.8 ± 5.12 μg for whole blood.
The delay time ΔT is in the best association with the E KL growth rate (dE KL/dt), the sd values being about 75%% of the mean quantity in this case.
All reactions were run in duplicates with the mean quantity taken.
Data are expressed as the mean quantity calculated using the following formula: quantity = 10–(Ct-Y intersept)/slope value), where Ct represents the threshold cycle value.
A mean quantity was calculated from triplicate PCR reactions for each sample, and this quantity was normalized to two similarly measured values of normalization genes (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and β-actin).
The mean quantity value for Spry2 or BDNF mRNA for each individual was normalized to the geometric mean of the three housekeeping genes to obtain the relative amount of each transcript in each individual.
