The accuracy of a-CGFI array generated from DNA samples extracted from FFPE tissue sections using our heat-induced retrieval protocol was shown by careful comparison of three groups of samples as indicated by Figure 3.3 and Table 3.1. 

In conclusion, the data described demonstrate the reproducible quality of DNA samples extracted by using a heat-induced retrieval protocol from FFPE tissue sections, based on careful comparison of a-CGH analysis data. This simple and effective DNA extraction protocol may provide an alternative technique for DNA analysis for CGH as well as for other methods of DNA... 

Figure 5.2 Comparison of immunohistochemical staining results among variable periods, 6 h to 30 days, of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human breast cancer tissue (A-N), and cell line MCF-7 sections (O-Bl). All four markers, estrogen receptor (ER) (A-G), CK (cytokeratin cocktail, H-N), Her2/neu (O-U), and MIB-1 (V-Bl), showed comparable positive immunostaining results at +++ level after antigen retrieval.

A data table of a case-base can be divided into input and output sections. Input parameters are retrieval parameters and output parameters are design specification parameters. The problem is characterized as input data to the system. In the retrieval phase a set of retrieval parameter values of all cases in the case-base are compared to the input data. The most similar cases are then selected and ranked based on the comparison. 

In this work the cases in the database are stored on their own MS-Excel worksheets. The stored cases are copied on a retrieval calculation data sheet during the retrieval phase. All retrieval parameters in this application are textual string parameters. Thus the comparison between casebase and input problem is simple. When the input value is equal with the case value, the distance is 1, otherwise the distance is 0. The weighted suitability of parameters is then calculated by Equation 9. The weighting factors are introduced by the user. Overall suitability is calculated by Equation 10. Cases are ranked according to their overall suitability and the five nearest cases are shown for the user on an output worksheet. 

The results, presented in Table 8, show that in most cases the conformer with the lowest steric energy indeed corresponds to the experimentally most favored one. In addition, several molecules containing the N—C—N moiety were retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database and calculated with the new parameter set. A comparison between MM2 and X-ray geometries (selected structural parameters only) for two conformers of 1,4,5,8-tetraazadecalin (25, 26) is provided in Table 9 and shows good fit between the experimental and calculated data.
