The method was verified on ten samples of bidisperse α-alumina with changing volume and size of meso and macro pores.
Still, as the sample sizes from the Burkina Faso M1, as well as from the Kenya S3 populations are small, the results obtained here need to be verified on larger samples of wild mosquitoes and by laboratory crosses.
Cell viability was verified on control samples with a live/dead stain (Invitrogen).
Synaptic targets of AACs (4 out of 5) and BCs (4 out of 12) were verified on random samples collected from the stratum pyramidale and proximal oriens/radiatum on ultrathin (70 nm) sections.
The plasma level of candidate proteins was verified on plasma samples from all patients and controls by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using commercially available ELISA reagents (USCN Life Science Inc., Wuhan City, China) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In addition, according to the small sample inference of the linear mixed model [ 36], our result needs to be verified on larger sample size.
The agreement of the research nurses on appropriateness of hospital days and on causes of delays was verified on a sample of 6 patients who totaled 52 hospital days (kappa = 0.90 for both appropriateness of hospital days and causes of delay).
The functionality of our method was successfully verified on real food samples.
