I'm proofreading an article titled "Photodegradation and in vitro photosensitizing activity of 4-acetylaminophenylacetic acid, an antirheumatic drug".
In this sentence:
"50% photoinduced hemolysis was obtained **at 25 min of irradiation** under air atmosphere, while 20 minutes were required to observe the same hemolysis value under an O2 enriched atmosphere. "
Is this the correct way to express it?

This may not be acceptable in ordinary parlance...
... but it seems to be common usage in the jargon of clinical trials as an economical way of saying that the value of a parameter was obtained at an exact time point of measurement in the course of a procedure.

: The phrase sounds like normal scientific jargon to me. The rest of the sentence is less pretty, but it does get the job done.
