Although we attempted to amplify at least 10 clones per tissue site, the low amplifiable copy number of viral RNA from BM precluded reaching this goal in some instances.
As a final limitation, the sample size precluded reaching conclusions on outcome measures (such as mortality) other than those related to glycemic or infection control.
A range of measures of effect were included in the reviews, and where the confidence intervals for the effect estimates were wide this precluded reaching firm conclusions.
Alternatively, the sensitivity of the two strains may be similar, but the higher variability in the C57Bl6 TEB-related parameters may have precluded reaching statistical significance for end points that were significantly altered in the CD-1 strain.
Still, cultural mores haven't changed so much that public record of these kinds of behaviors could preclude someone from reaching the highest office in the country, as our president has shown, and they're considered even more excusable when performed by children.
In addition to barriers caused by anthropogenic changes, natural barriers to dispersal such as mountain ranges or bodies of water can preclude species from reaching suitable habitats.
Such high ADP concentrations, along with the presence of ATPases in the permeabilized tissue preparations, preclude tissues from reaching true state 4 respiration; therefore, state 4 was estimated by the addition of oligomycin (160 µg/ml in ethanol).
To examine the relationship between Stx6 and GLUT4 sorting, we tested the effect of strategies that would preclude GLUT4 from reaching the perinuclear region and examined its insulin-responsive re-exocytosis.
What's more, by only serving iOS devices, Apple precluded customers from reaching lucrative emerging markets where Android is particularly dominant.
F508del-CFTR is associated with defective traffic (Class II) which precludes it from reaching the cell surface [reviewed in (Amaral, 2004)].
