We conducted a multi-year study across this subtropical island, sampling 2517 individuals from 30 species at 34 field sites, between 2010 and 2017, and including 171 museum samples collected between 1981 and 2009. (nature.com)

Assays2
The trans-PCR assay detects C. burnetii in samples immediately, unlike serologic assays that detect antibodies that could have been introduced months earlier. (cdc.gov)
However, the technical requirements of nasopharyngeal sampling and molecular assays limit the testing capabilities. (frontiersin.org)
Toxicological3
In this paper, we present the results of toxicological analyses of preserved brain tissue and bone samples from the remains of the seventeenth century patients of the Ospedale Maggiore , the main hospital in Milan and one of the most innovative hospitals in Europe from the Renaissance period. (nature.com)
In this multidisciplinary study of the remains, toxicological analyses in particular were performed with HPLC-MS/MS on different biological samples from nine individuals. (nature.com)
To understand the effects of this plastic pollution, it is necessary that the next toxicological studies take into account the effects of this fraction that makes up the NPs. (plos.org)

Practice2
We applied intensive experience sampling to measure daily practice and levels of targeted proximal outcomes (state mindfulness, decentering, emotional valance, and arousal) of training over the course of a 21-day MBI among a community-based sample of 82 meditation-naive adults. (nih.gov)
Despite intensive experience sampling, we found no evidence of cumulative or additive effects of total mindfulness meditation practice on outcomes at postintervention for mindfulness, decentering, emotional valence, or emotional arousal. (nih.gov)
Findings2
Replication study is a commonly used approach to verifying positive findings [ 3 , 4 ]. (springer.com)
