Occasionally, however, a contranym arises through a process called amelioration, whereby a normally negative word develops a secondary, positive meaning.
Of three couples who volunteered for the procedure, one woman had two embryos that were fertilized normally and were negative for the cystic fibrosis gene.
HepG2 cells were positive for GFP suggesting the promoter is active in these cells (Figure 6A) while the control B13 cells (which do not normally express CK19) were negative for GFP (Figure 6A), thus confirming there was no 'leakiness' of promoter expression.
We identified subjects apparently free of liver disease, since testing normally for liver enzymes and negative for serological HCV markers, which unexpectedly showed potential occult HCV infection features.
The AFE-TGS normally contains negative values for a few microRNAs, and these are converted before log transformation into positive signals, either by rounding up smaller values to 0.5 (default) or by adding the quantity |min (AFE-TGS | + offset, where ddTGS$R is the mAFE-TGS |t contains the TGS and offset is an arbitrary positive constant chosen by the user.
All the ASCs were positive and negative for appropriate markers normally associated with mesenchymal stem cells apart from CD34 where there was a separate population of cells at P2 expressing this marker, the size of which varied depending on the donor and the type of culture media used.
Indicative clauses are normally marked for negative polarity by means of the mood Adjunct loʾ, as in example [66] and others above, as well as in [69] below.
Importantly, their subsequent mean cumulative fluid balance, as achieved by clinicians blinded to BIVA results, was positive for dehydrated patients, negative for overhydrated patients and neutral for normally hydrated patients.
This situation is particularly negative for meso-nutrients (Ca+2 and Mg+2) because they are not normally applied by farmers.
