92 Although such measurements provide insights into the steroidogenic pathways under study, they do not identify the specific ovarian cells involved. Studies using microdissected preovulatory follicles identified estrone and estradiol as the major steroid products (Fig. 17-16). Progesterone and 17α-...
A blood gas analyzer can be used to obtain daily pO2 measurements in the fed-batch shake flasks, similar to the data for batch shake flasks presented in Fig. 2. Thus, a similar approach to the pH-matching can be investigated for sparging concerns. 3 Finally, the vessel physical ...
The obtained experimental results are validated with the manual measurements and inferences by the medical expert and demonstrate the efficacy of the method. The algorithm could achieve a classification rate of 76.67% for Bilinear filtering-Contrast Stretched- Adaptive Thresholding (BCAT) method and ...

Among all these biomaterials, the measurements performed in serum seem to have the highest diagnostic potential due to the simplicity of material collection. Similarly, granulosa cells derived from follicular fluid can also be easily obtained during follicular puncture before ART procedures; however, ...
Outcome’s measurements Insulin resistance was as the primary outcome, and other variables were as the secondary outcomes. Biochemical assessment Blood samples after fasting were taken in the beginning and the end point followed by immediate centrifuging (Hettich D-78532, Tuttlingen, Germany, 3500 rpm...
For intensity measurements of fax::GFP, control flies were fed wet yeast for three consecutive days, while starved flies were shifted to an empty vial with a wet kimwipe on day 2 and dissected after 24 h starvation. Fly stocks The following fly stocks were used in this study: BDSC ...
Therefore, given that PCOS is an important cause of psy- chic distress,43 it would be necessary to carry out a psycholog- ical screening by making use of HRQoL measurements,44–46 besides the routine physical, laboratory, and instrumental examinations, in order to evaluate the fragile psycho...
The study enrolled 99 stable body mass PCOS women (17 normal weight, 21 overweight and 61 obese). Anthropometric measurements and serum/plasma levels of glucose, insulin, lipids, estradiol, testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin, 17-OH progesterone, free androgen index, pentraxin-3 (PTX3), ...
