INTRODUCTION TO CC Flashcards
A chemical substance that is the subject of chemical analysis
Analyte
This is a compound or mixture added to a system to cause a chemical reaction or test if a reaction occurs
reagent
This reagent used in most analytical laboratory procedure
Analytic pure reagent
Reagent used for special procedures such as AAS, chromatography, molecular diagnostic
Ultrapure reagents
anything that speeds up the rate of chemical reaction but is not being produced or consumed in the reaction
Catalyst
process of testing and adjusting analyzer readout to establish correlation between measured and actual concentration
Calibration
a material of known concentration. For calibrating instrument
Standard
Testing material of known concentration to ensure accuracy of results throughout reportable range
calibration verification
Sample that is chemically and physically similar to unknown specimen and is tested in exactly the same manner
Control
values assigned by the manufacturer
Assayed
Values are determined by each individual laboratory
unassayed
most common reagent
Water reagent
type of reagent water: max water purity
Type 1
type of reagent water: most lab tests used
Type 2
FOR MOST QUALITATIVE TEST (HISTORY, UA, FA, WASHING, AUTOCLAVE, WASH COATER
TYPE 3
USING RESIN TO SELECTIVELY REOVED IONS
DEIONIZED WATER
REMOVES ORGANIC MATTER AD CHLORINE
ACTIVATED CARBON
SAMPLE FLOW THROUGH A CMMON REACTIONN VESSEL OOR PATHWAY
CONTINUOUS ANALYZER
USES CENTRIFUGATION TO TRANSFER SPECIMEN AND REAGENTS
CENTRIFUGAL ANALYZER
IT IS CAPABLE OF RUNNING MULTIPLE-SAMPLE-ONE-TEST-AT-A-TIME
CENTRIFUGAL ANALYZER
IT IS CAPABLE OF RUNNING MULTIPLE TEST ONE SAMPLE AT A TIME
DISCRETE ANALYZER
ACCELERATE GRAVITATIONAL SEPARATION OF SUBSTANCES DIFFERING IN THEIR MASSES
CENTRIFUGES
SWING BUCKET/HORIZONTAL ROTOR VERTICAL__ HORIZONTAL
AT REST
MOTION
FASTER THAN SWINGING BUCKET DUE TO LESS AIR RESISTANCE ALLOWS MORE RAPID SEDIMENTATION
ANGLE/FIXED
HIGH SPEED CAPABLE OF 100,000 RPM REFRIGERATE TO REDUCED HEAT
ULTRACENTRIFUGATION
IF YOU RE SPIN THE PRIMARY TUBE WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
HEMOLYSIS
IF YOU RESPIN THE SST WHAT WILL HAPPEN?
SERUM IN CONTACT WITH RBC
HIGH K
SPEED TEST CALIBRATION EVERY
3 MOS
DISINFECTION OF CENTRI
WEEKLY
HOLDS A PARTICULAR VOLUME BUT NOT DISPENSE THE EXACT VOLUME
TO CONTAIN
DISPENSED THE EXACT AMOUNT
TO DELIVER
THEY DRAIN BY GRAVITY AND SHOULD NOT BE BLOWN OUT
VOLUMETRIC PIPETTES
