Furthermore, rather than rely on an operator subjective evaluation of a mass spectra, MALDI-ToF mass spectra can be rendered semi-quantitative such that automated quantification of the qualitative change in the proteform pattern can be analysed.
The entire feature set was used as an annotation list for describing the clinical properties of mammographic tumor cases in a quantitative way, such that subsequent objective analyses were possible.
In mathematical terms, this is expressed as the value of the dependent variable response Y change as a function of independent variables or adjustable variables like x1, x2, x3..., xn of n quantitative factors such that output equals f input).
The ECB is embarking on a program of "quantitative easing" such that it will flood the banking system with some 1 trillion euros in excess of what the market was already requiring.
Ruth Chang, for example, points out, with reference to John Stuart Mill, that values may have both qualitative and quantitative aspects such that a single value may have qualitative dimensions that give rise to incomparability (Chang 1997b, 16-17).
However, the checklist was not designed to provide precise, quantitative assessments, such that judgements could be made about the quality of DSTs, either at item, dimension or global levels.
Viability predicted quantitative culture, such that 76% of results agreed within ±1 logarithm and 96% within ±2 logarithms, and there was good correlation (rS = 0.85; P <.001).
Thirdly, for global screening of the tumor-associated genes, traditional techniques such as DNA/RNA array and protein profiling are often lacking in accurate quantitative information, such that screening data are not always comparable with targeting data in biomarker discovery.
More specifically with livestock, SEM can be used to infer phenotype networks in the genetic analysis of quantitative traits, such that the effect of external interventions can be better predicted.
Tuberculosis quantitative viability microscopy predicted quantitative culture results such that 76% of results agreed within ±1 logarithm (rS = 0.85; P <.0001).
