bromide (polybrene) test in blood cross matching? Watch out! Abstract: BACKGROUND: Blood cross matching test mainly includes manual hexadimethrine bromide (polybrene) test (MPT) and the automatic analyzer method (by coombs card) at the Department of blood transfusion. Generally instrumental method is used for large quantities of samples. It can save manpower; MPT is used for emergency and few samples. it can save time. Our department recently encountered a case of cross match blood test by MPT was negative

demonstrated that the color of a given food dye depended on which light was transmitted in the visible spectrum and which light was absorbed. A quantitative measurement of the absorbance spectrum of each food dye was obtained through spectrophotometry.1 Through this method‚ we determined that the wavelength of maximum absorbance of a given food dye was directly correlated to the color of that food dye. Further‚ darker food dyes absorbed more light than lighter food dyes (Table 1). The relationship between

1. Describe the function of the following pieces of safety equipment and how each might be used: a. Eye wash- To be used in the event of a chemical splash to the eyes. Should be used to flood the eyes for at least 15-30 minutes with water‚ flooding from the eye outward. b. Fire Blanket- To be used in the case of a small fire. Would be tossed onto flames to suffocate the flow of oxygen. c. Shower- Safety showers are designed to flood your body with water in the event of a fire or chemical spill

making the bacteria take on various phenotypic characteristics. Background Information: Genetic transformation is one of the most important processes in biotechnology. Essentially‚ genetic transformation involves the process where a cell (in this lab‚ a bacterial cell) takes up foreign DNA from its surroundings and incorporates it into its own DNA. This gene transfer is accomplished with the aid of a plasmid‚ a

Reactions to Gravity‚ Light and Food Jacob Kluth and Kelsey Jankowski Introduction This lab has introduced the use of daphnia‚ pill bugs‚ amoeba and Uglena. We the AP Biology students were first introduced to the test subjects to test his or her capability of handling living organisms for upcoming science experiments. The AP Biology students were asked to create original experiments for all test subjects testing reactions to gravity‚ light intensity and reaction to food. Daphnia‚ or Daphnia magna

Adwoa Fosuah Bio Psych Lab Report 4 Cold Pressor Task Aim The cold pressor test is done by having the subject submerge their hands in a bucket of cold water to determine cardiovascular changes such as blood pressure and heart rate. For this experiment we wanted to know how long participant can keep their feet in the bucket of ice water before they experience any pain while looking at neutral and positive pictures and also rate the intensity of their pain. For this reason we hypothesized that
