ch16+17

Question 1

reflectance photometry

Answer 1

quantifies the intensity of colored product produced on reagent strip reaction pads

Question 2

semiautomated vs fully automated urine chemistry analyzers

Answer 2

semi: user properly digs reagent strip and place in on platform, instrument automatically reads pads at time

fully: user places labeled tubes of urine into rack and instrument fully performs test

Question 3

advantages gained by performing automated urine sediment analysis

Answer 3

elimination of observation associated variation, reduce need for manual microscopy review

Question 4

digital flow morphology

Answer 4

Iris iQ200 –>capture and automatically classify digital images of urine particles as they pass flowcell

Question 5

flow cytometry

Answer 5

UF-5000 –> urine particles are identified and categorized based on forward scatter

Question 6

digital microscopy

Answer 6

UriSed 2 –> scans for urine particles at single focal plane of cell

Question 7

dilutents

Answer 7

isotonic saline –> normal salines for cell counts

dilute acetic acid –> lyses RBCs

Question 8

step by step how to perform a manual cell count

Answer 8

pipette diluted body fluid into hemacytometer

allow to settle

examine for even distribution

Question 9

less than 200 cells present

Answer 9

count all 9 squares

Question 10

more than 200 cells present

Answer 10

count 4 large corner squares

Question 11

more than 200 cells in 1 large square

Answer 11

count all five RBC squares
