The weight was measured at designated time intervals.
The weight loss of each sample was measured at designated time points.
In each group, the VAN concentration in the PBS was measured at designated time points using a fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) (AxSYM, Abbott Laboratories, Chicago, IL, US).
This will be conducted by an assessor who will remain blind to group allocation and be responsible for taking outcome measures at designated follow-up times.
Serum anti-Ad5 neutralizing titers were measured at baseline and designated time points throughout the study (Table 1) using previously described qualified assays [12], [13].
The rainfall, snowfall, and wind velocity data, measured at the weather station designated "Obama" from 20 April to 15 May 2013, were obtained from the Automated Meteorological Data Acquisition System (AMeDAS) of the Japan Meteorological Agency.
Blood glucose was measured by hand-held glucometer at designated times throughout the study.
The overlapped signals were assigned from HSQC and HMBC spectra without designating multiplicity cData measured at 125 MHz; CH3, CH2, CH, and C multiplicities were determined by HSQC experiments δ in ppm, J in Hz. White powder; D 23 -7.7 (c = 0.18, MeOH); UV (MeOH) λ max (log ε) 209 (6.11) nm; IR (film) ν max 3378, 1773, 1613, 1521, 1078 cm−1078
The strain gauges were applied at four places the mesial, distal, buccal, and lingual sides of the implant and the strains they measured were designated as strain M, D, B, and L, respectively (Fig. 5).
The luciferase expressed in the mice was then measured using in vivo optical imaging at designated time points.
Preoperative systemic BMD measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was designated the principal indicator of baseline systemic skeletal status. 10 anatomical areas were measured at the lumbar spine, proximal femurs, and the distal non-dominant forearm.
