Specific detection of putative bacteria harbouring bla TEM-1 ampicillin resistance genes acquired from Bt176 corn was performed with a method based on the extraction of DNA from the culturable bacterial fraction and with PCR.
Mechanical testing was performed with a method consistent with the recommendations of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) (ASTM 1996).
Calculations of the post-surgical volumes of VOIs in the resected temporal lobe were performed with a different method because many assumptions of Freesurfer algorithms would be violated by resected MR images.
To magnify the defects of a scheme we consider a convection-reaction equationut+(|u|q/q x= u,u,x∈R,t∈R+,q>1.It is shown that, if a numerical scheme for the advection part is performed with a splitting method, the intrinsic properties of the scheme are magnified and observed easily.
Assays were performed with a microbiological method (measuring the active part of the antibiotic).
Phylogenetic analyses were performed with a variety of methods and analytical conditions to ensure that the major features of the tree topology were not method-dependent.
Capillary glucose measurements were performed with a glucometric method before and after two hours of enteral feeding for all cases.
The capsaicin challenges were performed with a standardized method [ 11- 15] with one of two different air-driven devices: Pari Boy (Paul Ritzau Pari-Werk, GmbH, Starnberg, Germany) or Maxin MA3 (Clinova Medical AB, Malmö, Sweden).
Objective assessment of HH severity and surface area affected can be performed with a variety of methods, including the Minor's starch iodine test with gravimetric analysis, 10 dynamic sudorometry, 16, 17 thermoregulatory sweat test, 10 and skin conductance (SC).
The sampling of the parameter space was performed with a variety of methods: local, often using multi-start strategies to avoid getting stuck in local minima; global; or hybrid.
