The MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC) project shows inter- and intraplatform reproducibility of gene expression measurements

Leming Shi, +136 more
- 01 Sep 2006 - 
TL;DR: This study describes the experimental design and probe mapping efforts behind the MicroArray Quality Control project and shows intraplatform consistency across test sites as well as a high level of interplatform concordance in terms of genes identified as differentially expressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performing Skin Microbiome Research: A Method to the Madness.

TL;DR: This review discusses microbiome research standards and highlights important factors to consider, including clinical study design, skin sampling, sample processing, DNA sequencing, control inclusion, and data analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

High functional load inhibits phonological contrast loss: a corpus study.

TL;DR: The first larger-scale study of the functional load hypothesis is presented, using data from sound changes in a diverse set of languages and finds that minimal pair count and phoneme probability better predict merger than change in system entropy at the lexical or phoneme level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improving End-User Trust in the Quality of Commercial Probiotic Products.

TL;DR: Third-party certification, the process of setting standards for identity, purity, and quantification of probiotics; some emerging methodologies useful for quality assessment; and some technical challenges unique to managing quality of live microbial products are discussed.
