Sensitivity and dynamic range comparisons between ligands in Anopheles gambiae
| Comparison | EC50 | HillSlope | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| F (DFn, DFd) | P value | F (DFn, DFd) | P value | |
| ATP vs. ADP | 4.50 (1, 66) | 0.040 | ns | |
| ADP vs. AMP | 4.67 (1, 73) | 0.034 | ns | 0.58 |
| ATP vs. AMP | 20.73 (1, 65) | < 0.0001 | ns | |
Values were obtained using a non-linear regression curve fit model using a least-square regression statistical fitting method
ADP Adenosine diphosphate, AMP adenosine monophosphate, ATP adenosine triphosphate, DFd degree of freedom for the denominator of the F ratio, DFn degree of freedom for the numerator of the F ratio, EC50 half maximal effective concentration (M)
