Hence, these specimens would have still been considered as valid specimens for analysis by the testing protocol utilized herein.
In order to evaluate HER2 CISH assay performance closer to the cut-off this data were also presented for all valid specimens having a CISH HER2/CEN-17 ratio below 3.0 (Table 6).
During the exploratory analysis mean HER2/CEN-17 randos and mean HER2 and CEN-17 signal copy numbers (normalized to 20 nuclei) were calculated for all three assays and tabulated for comparison for all the valid specimens (Table 5).
The retrospective assessment of the'08,'09 and'10 NVSL panels indicated that qPCR correctly identified 72/73 999%) of the valid diagnostic specimens.
We analyzed a total of 63 specimens from 46 valid species and four putative species, including three outgroups from West Africa.
Equation 7 does not describe the experimentally determined thickness dependence, because Eq. (5) is valid for thick specimens, where multiple inelastic scattering can take place.
All runs from the internal repeatability analysis were valid across all specimens, reagent lots, operators, and instruments combined.
However, Boyd and colleagues found that they could not assign it to either of their valid species of Thescelosaurus and regarded the specimen as of uncertain placement within the genus.
Indeed, the schemes prove valid for various materials, specimen configurations and loading conditions, including different stress ratios as well as variable-amplitude loading.
