13.4.8 An article in the Food Technology Journal (1956, Vol. 10, pp. 3942) described a study on the protopectin content of
tomatoes during storage. Four storage times were selected, and samples from nine lots of tomatoes were analyzed. The
protopectin content (expressed as hydrochloric acid soluble fraction mg/kg) is in Table 13E-1.
(a) The researchers in this study hypothesized that mean protopectin content would be different at different storage
times. Can you confirm this hypothesis with a statistical test using
= 0.05?
(b) Find the P-value for the test in part (a).
(c) Which specific storage times are different? Would you agree with the statement that protopectin content decreases
as storage time increases?
(d) Analyze the residuals from this experiment.

roughness was measured. The data are as follows:

(d) Variability of the residuals increases with the response. The normal probability plot has some curvature in the tails,
indicating a problem with the normality assumption. A transformation of the response should be conducted.
13.S12 An article in the Journal of Quality Technology [(1982, Vol. 14(2), pp. 8089)] described an experiment in which three
different methods of preparing fish were evaluated on the basis of sensory criteria, and a quality score was assigned.
Assume that these methods have been randomly selected from a large population of preparation methods. The data are

investigate the effect of drying temperature of wheat grain on baking quality bread. Three temperature levels were
used, and the response variable measured was the volume of the loaf of bread produced. The data are as follows:

(d) There are some relatively small differences in the variability at the different levels of temperature. The variability
decreases with the fitted values. There is an unusual observation on the normal probability plot.
13.S14 An article in Nature Genetics [(2003, Vol. 34(1), pp. 8590)], “Treatment-Specific Changes in Gene Expression
Discriminate in vivo Drug Response in Human Leukemia Cells,” reported the results of a study of gene expression as a
function of different treatments for leukemia. Three treatment groups are mercaptopurine (MP) only, low-dose
methotrexate (LDMTX) and MP, and high-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) and MP. Each group contained 10 subjects.
The responses from a specific gene are shown in Table 13E-3.
(a) Check the normality of the data. Can you assume that these samples are from normal populations?
(b) Take the logarithm of the raw data and check the normality of the transformed data. Is there evidence to support the
claim that the treatment means differ for the transformed data? Use
= 0.1.
(c) Analyze the residuals from the transformed data and comment on model adequacy.

13.S16 An article in Journal of Hazardous Materials [“Toxicity Assessment from Electro-Coagulation Treated-Textile Dye
Waste Waters by Bioassays,” 2009, Vol. 172(1), pp. 330337] discussed a study of pollutant removal from textile
dyeing waste water with an electro-coagulation technique. Chemical oxygen demand (COD) (a common measure of
water pollution) was used as the response, and three different values for electrolysis time were considered. The
following data were extracted from a larger study. Suppose that a randomized complete block experiment was
conducted with three blocks based on initial pH values.
