The presence of mecALGA251 was verified by using a specific PCR that applied newly designed primers: mecAL1 (5′-AGC TGG CCA TCC CTT TAT TT-3′) and mecAL2 (5′-CTG GCA TAT GGA GAA GAA GAA A-3′), derived from the sequence of S. aureus LGA251 provided by M. Holden (Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, Hinxton, UK; accession no. FR821779).
Using a specific multilevel approach to applying screening criteria, we have identified a screening algorithm requiring history and physical examination only, with comparable discriminatory capacity (AUC in ROC analysis) to ADA recommendations but requiring less information (age, sex, parent history of T2DM, SBP, and BMI z score).
This article presents the results of an extensive experimental programme investigating the structural performance for in-plane loads of old masonry walls strengthened using a specific technique that consisted of applying a CFRP mesh embedded within a shotcreted render.
Using a specific encoding, ranking methods can be applied to infer a model for a certain activity profile of compounds for different biological targets.
The CNV assay was performed using a specific TaqMan® Copy Number Assay (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) following the manufacturer's instructions.
I describe and apply methods for the analysis of such belief systems using a specific example.
Each version uses a specific gin.
Various patient education programmes have been used for treating chronic health conditions, but no consensus has been reached on how patient education should be applied; either using a disease specific or generic approach, group-based or individual education, and either given by health professionals or lay tutors [ 13, 14].
A fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique was applied using a region-specific cosmid probe combined with centromeric probe.
We thus had to associate a friction angle and a cohesion to each layer for the NOAH input files: This was done using specific "rules" applied to the shear wave velocity profiles.
