The first four scuba dives were dedicated to primarily specimen collection and photography.
Previous studies primarily involved specimens that differed in size, but with self-similar standard geometric configurations, making it difficult to separate constraint loss from statistical size effects.
However, the gel route is slow, expensive, and not conducive to obtaining large, monolithic specimens (primarily because of fractures that form during drying).
Similarly, injection of dilute mangrove extract in D. anchorata resulted in necrosis in all specimens, primarily various degrees of black lesions surrounding the site of injection, and altered shape in two specimens, while controls injected with seawater remained unaffected (Figure 1C,F).
Our findings are based primarily on clinical specimens, and it is not surprising that in vitro studies using clonal cell lines only capture some aspects.
Transcripts containing sequence from any or all of these alternatively spliced exons are expressed at low levels and were detected primarily in PCa specimens and metastases.
Skin tissues were mostly obtained from biopsies [50] and to a lesser extent from sloughed skin, or stranded specimens (primarily Region X).
Thus we assume here that urine specimens primarily contain bacteria associated with the urethral epithelium, and lower numbers of organisms from the bladder and urethral meatus.
For some specimens, primarily museum specimens, amplification did not work for all gene regions, and different gene regions failed to amplify in different snails, resulting in snails with no sequence in common.
For 35% of outbreaks, no suspected or confirmed etiology was identified, primarily because diagnostic specimens were not collected.
