For instance, the existence of red melpomene-like forewing bands in specimens otherwise similar to H. cydno might be due to ancestral polymorphism, because the two species are sister taxa (Fig. 1).
For large-scale, population-based clinical and epidemiological studies, methodological and ethical considerations are critical as researchers choose to incorporate the sampling of biological specimens in otherwise asymptomatic women and such considerations include cost, ease of specimen collection and storage, and potential maternal and fetal risks.
By making sure the animals stay shredded, zookeepers hope to replicate the same level of fitness that those specimens would otherwise enjoy in the outside world.
†Identified by PCR; nonengorged specimens unless otherwise specified.
We owe thanks to the editor and an anonymous referee for their constructive comments, as well as our collaborators who contributed specimens or otherwise helped with sampling.
This study required the collection of specimens that otherwise would have been discarded and information from medical records that was available to hospital personnel.
‡All specimens, unless otherwise stated, were tested with proFlu Plus PCR (Prodesse, Waukesha, WI, USA) for influenza viruses A and B and respiratory syncytial virus.
This study required the collection of specimens that otherwise would have been discarded, and used information from medical records that was available to hospital personnel.
The study required the collection only of specimens that otherwise would have been discarded and information from medical records that were available to hospital personnel.
We isolated Bordetella holmesii, generally associated with septicemia in patients with underlying conditions, from nasopharyngeal specimens of otherwise healthy young persons with a cough.
The current study confirms the previous reports that P. jirovecii can be detected in respiratory tract specimens from otherwise healthy infants with an acute RTI.
