A more sophisticated model assumes the within-specimen (technical) variation follows a Poisson distribution and the between-specimen mean values follow a gamma distribution.
The humble suburban plot with plain lawns and a few bedding plants has been overtaken by sophisticated designs involving elegant furniture, exotic specimen plants and mature trees, all of which are much more valuable than their predecessors.
Since for cultivation of M. ulcerans a sophisticated laboratory infrastructure is required, clinical specimens from BU patients often cannot be processed in a timely manner.
Co-A test proved to be simple and suitable tool for detecting microsporidial antigen in different specimens and did not need sophisticated equipment.
The specimen shows how quickly insects evolved sophisticated aerodynamics, says insect flight physiologist Robert Dudley of the University of Texas, Austin.
Elaborate data acquisition schemes with autotuning functions minimize exposure of the specimen to the electron beam and sophisticated image analysis routines retrieve a maximum of information from noisy data sets.
Increasingly sophisticated tools for modulating the illumination of biological specimens improves resolution and contrast in ways that were unimaginable a few years ago.
This method is a very sophisticated tool to screen a large number of clinical specimens, but it might obscure essential findings by evaluating only small punched random samples from morphologically representative tissue areas.
However, the development of sophisticated whole genome and informatics technologies and the increase in specimen and data sharing have raised new questions about the identifiability of specimens and the protection of participants in human specimen research.
A sophisticated custom-designed web database is used to handle clinical diagnoses, specimen tracking and reporting; all diagnoses, including disease transformations and progressions, are automatically coded to International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, 3rd Edition (ICD-O-3) (WHO, 2000).
