Little help for paper translation

Hi, I would ask some little help for the translation to english of an article on microsatellite analysis . I'm not native English. I do not even know if it's possible in this forum ask this type of question.

sequencing

Hi netsam,

The scope of this forum is limited to bioinformatics. Is that the topic of the article?

Regards,
Wouter

What language is the original article in? Or are you asking for a simple(r) explanation of a paper already in English?

Sorry, I'm from Italy but the paper is written in English.

"The aim of this study was to investigate allelic frequencies in 10 of the microsatellite markers recommended by the International Society for Animal Genetics (ISAG) in sheep"

This is part of Abstract. The data have been produced by fragment analysis on microsatellite, I calculate statistics parameters like Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, Number of Alleles in the population ecc with various software like Genalex, or PowerMarker and other

Does that part need an explanation? Unfortunately my knowledge of Italian is limited to types of pasta.

The aim (aka objective) of this study was to investigate the frequency of the alleles of 10 microsatellite markers in sheep. Those markers were chosen from a set recommended by the ISAG.

Ok, thanks for your tips. I'll check the attached documents.

Sorry but I have to connect this sentence with next. I wrote the three sentences together.

The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of the alleles of 10 microsatellite markers in Sicilian sheep, providing a first reference document for genetic characterization, phylogenetic analysis and genetic traceability of sheep flocks. Those markers were chosen from a set recommended by the International Society for Animal Genetics (ISAG).

Could you please check ?

P.S: (aka objective) means that I can use objective instead of aim ?

Parlo un po' d'italiano - abitavo a milano in 2014. Tu vuoi traduzire (a italiano) e capire il inglese scritto nun altro manoscritto?; oppure tu sta scrivendo un manoscrito e vuoi sapere si il suo inglese e' buono? Si, 'objective' e' la stessa che 'aim'.

Grazie, si, ho scritto il lavoro direttamente in inglese e vorrei capire se ci sono errori grammaticali e, soprattutto, se il senso della frase è giusto. Ma penso che sarà troppo lungo fare la correzione in un post. Mi potresti aiutare via mail ?

Hello netsam!

We believe that this post does not fit the main topic of this site.

This is not bioinformatics. I hope you can approach someone personally or find a suitable forum to ask for help.

For this reason we have closed your question. This allows us to keep the site focused on the topics that the community can help with.

If you disagree please tell us why in a reply below, we'll be happy to talk about it.

Cheers!

That's ok, I agree with you. I'm sorry for the situation.

Hey, no problem at all! I closed the question as it does not add value in a Q&A bank sense (the site is a knowledge-base after all). I hope you get the help you need from Kevin. Feel free to join us on Slack if you'd like to discuss more.
