Microbiology
This organism genus, commonly implicated in UTIs, swarms on blood agar.
What is Proteus?
This pentameric antibody isotype is the first to appear after an infection.
What is IgM?
What is Vasopressin or Anti-diuretic Hormone (also, copeptin)?
The minimum percentage of blasts presence in the PB or BM needed for a diagnosis of AML.
What is 20%?
Gloves
Lab Coats
Goggles
What is PPE?
This tube test indicates whether a Gram negative organism ferments glucose, lactose or sucrose. It also indicates whether an organism uses hydrogen sulfide.
This antigen presenting cell shares its name with a nervous system cell, due to its shared morphological characteristics.
What is a dendritic cell?
This analyte is tested via competitive immuno-enzymatic chemiluminescent assay and is helpful for diagnosing ovarian tumors, testicular atrophy, and Turner syndrome.
What is estradiol?
The deficiency of this leads to megaloblastic anemia.
What is vitamin B12?
Phlebotomy
Specimen processing
Specimen labeling
What are preanalytical variables?
This group of Gram positive, catalase positive organisms is usually commensal, but sometimes it causes catheter and hardware infections.
What are the coagulase negative staphylococci?
This adverse reaction occurs when transplanted WBCs react against the patient's own antigens.
What is graft versus host disease?
This antioxidant is associated with mild hemolytic anemia in deficiency and impairment of blood coagulation in toxicity.
What is vitamin E or a-tocopherol?
The type of hemoglobin that is analyzed to determine the average glucose level over past two to three months.
Analytical specificity
Analytical sensitivity
Accuracy
What is Method Validation?
This organism is known for causing otitis media. Unlike its GNDC comrades, though, it doesn't oxidize glucose, maltose, lactose, or sucrose.
What is Moraxella catarrhalis?
What is systemic lupus erythamatous (SLE)?
Along with Vitamin D and calcium, parathyroid hormone also regulates this major intracellular anion.
What is phosphate (HPO42-)?
The gene mutation associated with polycythemia vera.
What is JAK2 V617F?
Lipemia
Icterus
Hemolysis
What are interferents?
Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces this blue pigment as a virulence factor.
What is pyocyanin?
Products of these genes allow for the genetic rearrangement of DNA that codes for antibody production in pro-B cells, resulting in greater antibody diversity.
What are RAG-1 and RAG-2?
Potentiometry and amperometry are the conceptual bases of this type of instrumentation, but is limited by the phenomena that hyperproteinemia falsely decreases measurement of electrolytes?
What is indirect ion-selective electrode?
The drug that inhibits vitamin K activities.
What is warfarin?
Biosafety Cabinet
Fume Hood
Negative Pressure Room
What are engineering controls?
