- Melinda was working the day shift in the hematology laboratory. The laboratory’s protocol called for three levels of blood cell controls to be run at the following times: 1) at the beginning of the shift, 2) within each run of patient samples during the day and 3) any times reagents were changed. The mean for the low (abnormal) control for the red blood cell count was given as 2.00 x 10^12/L, the standard deviation was 0.15, and the confidence limit (acceptable control range) was 2.00 x 10^12/L +/- 2sd (or +/- 0.3). The first morning low control result was 2.10 (x 10^12/L). In five subsequent runs, the low control results were 2.16, 2.19, 2.20, 2.22 and 2.25. 1. Do these values represent a shift, a trend, or neither? 2. Should Melinda be concerned about these values? Explain. 3. Does Melinda need to take any action?uan used the ABO blood testing kit to determine his blood type. His test showed the following anti-A anti-B anti-D - - + + means agglutination was observed - means no agglutination was observed What is Juan's blood type? O- O+ A+ A-This is homework not a test! From NTSA case study https://static.nsta.org/case_study_docs/case_studies/cystic_fibrosis.pdf Please help with questions 2, 3 and 4 of part four 2. "The successful use of gene therapy to cure SCID syndrome (2000) is hoped to be a permanent cure for those patients because a good copy of the problem gene was inserted into the patients' blood stem cells in the bone marrow (hematopoietic stem cells). Once white blood cells enter the blood stream they have a limited life span, on the order of a few week to months. The blood stem cells are the cells that create more white blood cells to replace those that are lost. If the gene was only inserted into the circulating mature white blood cells, the patient would only be temporarily cured until those cells were used up or died." The current gene therapy approaches to cure CF involve inserting a functional CFTR gene into the mature epithelial cells of the lungs. In light of the preceding paragraph, do you think that…
