Extrapolated force, calculated by linear regression to zero immersion (to eliminate buoyancy force), was used as characteristic parameter here instead of contact angle because surface tension of protein solution is modified from one cycle to another and is no more constant during the overall series of cycle's acquisition.
The procedures for sugar analysis were modified from ones known to prevent artifactually high fructose levels in plant tissue extracts [ 21].
Both species were also cultured on a formulated soil, which was modified from the one used for Mycena kentingensis (Shih et al. 2014), with white rice bran replaced by black rice bran.
The mineral salt medium (MM) used for enrichment and growth was modified from the one used by Fortnagel and coworkers (1990), and comprised (per liter): 3.5 g of Na2HPO4.2H2O, 1.0 g of KH2PO4, 0.5 g of (NH4 2SO4; 0.1 g of MgCl2.6H2O, 50 mg of Ca(NO3 2.4H2O, 1 mL of vitamin B12, and 1 mL of trace salt solution.
In this paper, we define a new eligible kernel function ψ ( t ) = t 2 − 1 2 + e p ( t − q − 1 ) − 1 p q, p ≧ 1 and q ≧ 1 for t > 0, which was modified from the one in [9, 10], and obtain the best known iteration complexity result for the large-update IPM of the SOP by using the analysis emphasized on the kernel function and the Euclidean Jordan algebra techniques.
This classification was modified from the one described by Moore et al. [ 8].
The procedure for in vivo SEB treatment was modified from the one previously described.
The pooling method used was modified from the one used in sorghum [ 14] to accommodate the larger genome size of maize (about 3× of sorghum).
This method and the following immunohistochemistry by haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining were performed using the method described previously by Steven Ruzin (Schichnes et al., 1998), and FABP4 immunostaining method was modified from the one described previously (Kajimura et al., 2008) (Gupta et al., 2010).
