Question
Chapter 23, Problem 13TYK
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The blood sample is spun in the centrifuge. The components of the centrifuge are to be analyzed. The analysis shows the presence of straw-colored fluid at the top of the tube and the presence of dense red portion at the bottom.
Introduction:
The blood has components like white blood cells, red blood cells, immunoglobulins, ions, calcium, potassium, sodium, glucose, amino acids, hormones, platelets, and plasma proteins like fibrinogen.

For the following statements, answer TRUE or FALSE and explain your answer briefly.
Capillary electrophoresis cannot be applied in Sanger method, if there is an absence
of fluorescence tags on dideoxynucleoside triphosphates.
10ul of the original sample was transferred to 90ul diluent. Then, the mixture was mixed with 100ul trypan blue dye. The dilution factor of the square is 10^4. Determine the cells/mL using hemocytometer. Rule:Only count the cells on the top and left lines of square.
Based on the given figure, what is the cell concentration?
A 5mL sample diluted 1:1 with trypan blue is counted using a hemocytometer. A
total of 325 viable cells and 52 dead cells were counted in the four corner square
and the big central square of the meter. What is the total number of dead cells
per mL of the sample?

- 1 ml of whole blood is collected and centrifuged to obtain a plasma sample. The volume of the plasma sample is 300 microlitres. A 1 in 4 dilution of the plasma is made and analysed using a cholesterol assay like the one you performed in the laboratory. 10 microlitres of both the diluted plasma sample and a cholesterol standard are assayed using 1mL of cholesterol reagent. Following incubation at 37 degrees Celcius, the samples are measured spectrophotometrically at 500nm. If the absorbance of the plasma sample assay was 0.5, the absorbance of the cholesterol standard assay was 0.4, and the concentration of cholesterol in the standard was 1.3mM, what was the concentration of the cholesterol in the whole blood (in mM)? (assume all of the cholesterol in the whole blood sample was recovered in the plasma; do not include units in your answer; give your answer to 2 decimal places)arrow_forwardTwo 0.9 mL aliquots of a serum are placed in two separate test tubes.
