Clinical Microscopy Flashcards
What is the principle of pH in the reagent strip?
Double indicator system
What is the most indicative of a renal disease out of the routine chemical test performed on urine?
determination of protein
It is the major serum protein found in normal urine
albumin
Identify the major categories that causes proteinuria when Bence Jones Protein is suspected in the urine
Pre renal Proteinuria
T/F. Bence Jones Protein coagulates at temp 40 C and 60 C and dissolves when the temp reaches 90 C
false. dissolves when it reaches 100 C
What is the confirmatory test for all positive protein result
Sulfosalicylic acid Precipitation test (SSA)
What test is the most frequently performed chemical analysis on urine
glucose test
Hyperglycemia that occurs during opregnancy and disappears after delivery is called
Gestational diabetes
It occurs in the absence of hyperglycemia when the reabsorption of glucose by the renal tubules is compromised. This is seen in end-stage of renal disease, Fanconi syndrome, cystinosis
glucosoria
What test is used in severe cases of ketosis?
Acetest procedure
What test is performed when questionable results are obtain in Bilirubin
Ictotest tablets
Which is more sensitive in testing for Bilirubin? Ictotest or Reagent strip?
Ictotest with 0.05 to 0.10 mg/dL while rgt strip 0.40 mg/dL
Test for urobilinogen that is not perfdormed routinely d/t time consuming and nonspecific. This includes using sodium acetate, Ehrlich reagent and urine
Ehrlich Tube test
The classic test for differentiating between urobilinogen, porphobilinoge and Ehrlich-reactive compounds
Watson-Schwartz Differentiation Test
A test used for rapid screening or monitoring of urinary porphobilinogen
Hoesch Test
