As for the "126" part, well, you have to realize that there was never a Lab125 or a Lab124, just like there was only ever a Preparation H, never a G or an F. The "126" part stems from the fact that "A" is the first letter of the alphabet and "Z" is the 26th, a techno-geeky homage to the "A to Z" development center.
Until recently, however, only an intravenous preparation has been readily available.
Hence it is argued that any evolutionary pressures evoked by prior hand preparations of wild seeds was dwarfed by the advent of cereal agriculture, which in turn provided only a partial evolutionary preparation for the modern Western diet.
Taken together, this work gives not only a novel sample preparation platform using an electric field for plant hormones, but also a good example of extracting complex plant tissues in a simple and effective way.
Only a minimal sample preparation was needed to be able to detect the AgNPs presence in the sample within 10 min.
In particular, the differences that we observed likely stem from the fact that pro-cues allow for only partial preparation: following a pro-cue participants can prepare an attentional set (e.g. "attend color, but not shape"), but cannot prepare a stimulus-response mapping until the onset of the array (because the location of that particular colors and shapes changed on a trial-by-trial basis).
To hear the NRA tell it, gun laws only make the population weaker and more liable to be attacked, and any move for a national gun registry is only in preparation for a Nazi takeover.
In order to demonstrate that the epileptiform signal amplitude (ΔFepileptiform) can indeed provide a useful normalization of other functional signals, we display the spatial distribution of sleep-like activity across the imaging field, in a preparation where only half of the cortex was stained well, as in Figure 3 (Figure 8A).
More culturally appropriate inferences are, however, possible: that Chinese students would use brushes as efficiently as we use pens and pencils, and that since the test required years of preparation, only a select few would take it -- which, in fact, was the case.
Hoppin' John -- the pre-eminent rice and pea dish of the Western world, a nutritional marvel, the culinary touchstone of the African diaspora and a hangover remedy without equal -- needs only a few hours of preparation and can be on your table by this very evening.
