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.

The following are errors that people commonly make when they perform serial dilutions. Indicate whether you think that the number of cfu/ ml calculated would be too high or too low if you make this mistake.
You intend to add 0.9 ml of diluent to each tube and 0.1 ml of culture. Instead, you add 0.5 ml of diluent to each tube and 0.1 ml of culture to the first tube. Then, you make a serial dilution of 0.1 ml into and from each tube as described.
You prepare 0.9 ml of diluents in each tube. You add 0.1 ml of culture (from the overnight culture provided) to every tube.
You add 0.9 ml of diluent to each tube. You add 0.1 ml of culture to the first tube and mix. You get distracted, and transfer 0.1 ml to the third tube instead of the second. You perform the rest of the series as described.
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?
Using 25 μL of serum, how much diluent would be needed to create a 1:2 dilution? ______ μL

- Dr. Riggs took 1ml of whole mouse blood and added it to 10ml of PBS. You next take 0.5 mL of Dr. Riggs's sample from step 1 and add it to 9.5 mL of PBS. You load your hemacytometer with the dilution you made in step 2, look at it under the microscope, but there are still too many cells to count. You now take 0.2mL of sample from step 2 and add it to 5ml of PBS. Using a hemacytometer, you load your sample and count the following number of red blood cells in 1 chamber (5 squares): chamber 1 = 25, 25, 30, 20, 30 If this mouse has 2 mL of blood in it’s body, how many red blood cells does it have?

The tubes are randomly labelled A, B, C. 2 mL of each solution were transferred to a different microcentrifuge tube, 20 ul of blood were then added to each tube, and they were mixed well by inverting the tube for multiple times. They were observed and it was determined whether the solution in each tube was hypotonic (Yes or No) relative to the blood cells. In addition, the solutions were diluted with water to help you determine which solution is which sucrose concentration. What sucrose concentration corresponds with each tube? Tube Hypotonic (Yes/No) Hypotonic after 1:1 dilution with water (Yes/No) Most likely Sucrose concentration (mM) A No Yes B Yes Yes C No Noarrow_forward6) 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.
