The age of a rock, for example, can be determined by measuring ratios of the parent element and its decay products.
The opposite relationship would apply for probes measuring ratios of loss.
Thus, it is critical that the accuracy and the precision of the measured ratio be optimized.
We included this last ratio to highlight how interfering signals can distort measured ratios upward as well and downward.
This measures ratios more reliably and is less affected by unspecific signals than the 'ratio of medians' (see also [ 41]).
The growth rate ratio measures the ratio of the growth rate of tubulin at a density higher than the natural synchrony to the growth rate at lower tubulin density.
The likelihood ratio measures the ratio between the prevalence of each pattern in subjects with and without the outcome.
Ratio meters measure the ratio of the voltage across the resistance to the current flowing through it.
By measuring the ratio of Neanderthal to human mitochondrial DNA, he can assess the degree of contamination in a sample.
