21
Q

Type of blood specimen:

Plasma and cellular components such as RBC, WBC, and platelets are present

A

Whole blood

22
Q

Type of blood specimen:

With anticoagulant, requires immediate mixing following blood collection

A

Whole blood

23
Q

Type of blood specimen:

Clear yellow supernatant on top upon settling of whole blood

24
Q

Type of blood specimen:

Obtained from a tube without anticoagulant

25
Q

Which is clearer, plasma or serum?

26
Q

T/F: the blood sample for serum does not require clotting before centrifugation, since the centrifugation will be able to separate its serum

27
Q

Settings for centrifugation of blood sample

A

1000-2000 g for 10 minutes

28
Q

How much time is needed to clot a blood sample? (with and without clot activator)

A

1 hour (without)
30 minutes (with)

29
Q

How much time is needed to clot a blood sample with thrombin?

30
Q

In what test is gel activator discouraged due to its false absorption?

A

Therapeutic drug monitoring (absorbs drugs)

31
Q

How much time is needed for the IV to be turned off before venipuncture on the site?

32
Q

T/F: collection above the IV site is allowed

A

F (should be below)

33
Q

This specific anticoagulant is used for lactose testing, glucose, and ethanol testing

A

Potassium oxalate (in gray tube)

34
Q

This is the anticoagulant used for anticoagulant therapy and synovial fluid crystal analysis

A

Sodium heparin

35
Q

This anticoagulant inhibits DNA polymerases

36
Q

This tube is used for lead testing

A

Tan colored

37
Q

This anticoagulant causes blue background in wright’s staining

38
Q

This anticoagulant distorts cell morphology

A

Oxalate & Fluoride

39
Q

This anticoagulant preserves labile coagulation factors

40
Q

This anticoagulant stimulates acid phosphatase

41
Q

Analytes increased with the use of tourniquet

A

Potassium, Albumin, Lactase, Ammonia

42
Q

Alternative disinfectant for alcohol during alcohol testing

A

Benzalkonium chloride

43
Q

Traces of alcohol causes what effect to the blood collected?

44
Q

T/F: rimming/ringing is done for all blood samples to ensure that centrifugation will have its optimal effect

A

F (serum samples only)

45
Q

Rapid swelling at or near the venipuncture site due to blood leaking into the tissues

46
Q

Anemia as a result of treatment

A

Iatrogenic anemia

47
Q

The processing of a sample should be done within __ hours

48
Q

The refrigeration setting for samples should be at __ for __ hours

49
Q

The freezing setting for samples should be at __ for longer periods, if later testing is required
