You have an order for 1 gram of Cefazolin in D5W 100 ml. You have added 5 ml of sterile water to the 1 gram vial to reconstitute powder. However the recommended manufacturer’s diluent amount is 10 ml of sterile water for a final concentration of 100 mg/ml. How would reconstituting the vial with 5 mls affect the concentration and the final calculated dose?

6) 1 mL of supernatant is required for a procedure. The final colored solution proves to be too high to read accurately on the spectrophotometer. 100 μL of supernatant and 900 μL of distilled water are substituted for the original supernatant and the procedure, run as before. The reading from the standard curve is 46 mg/dL. What is the actual amount of substance in the patient serum?

4 mL of 10% TCA solution was added to 1 mL of serum and after mixing, it was waited for two minutes and filtered through non-phosphorus filter paper. 1 mL of the filtrate was taken and 13 mL of distilled water, 4 mL of sulfomolybdic acid and 2 mL of dilute SnCl2 solution were added and mixed, and after waiting for 15 minutes, the absorbances of the obtained solutions against pure water at 520 nm were read. If the function of the calibration graph obtained with 0.5-2.5 mg/mL standard phosphorus solutions is y= 0.245x + 0.107 and the absorbance value of the serum sample is 0.109, what is the amount of phosphorus in the sample?
