Lab 8 Endocrinology Flashcards
List the 3 possible interactions btw Gamma radiation and matter?
Photoelectric effect, Compton Scattering and Pair production
What is Compton Scattering?
y- photons colliding with free or loosely bound electron in the absorber
Which radiation type has the highest ionzing ability?
Alpa
Where is progesterone produced?
Ovary, placenta and small amounts in adrenal medulla
What is detected in pregnancy in humans?
Present of hCG secretion by trophoblast cells in placenta
What is pair production?
When a photon of high energy comes near to an atomic nucleus in the absorber
Give the step of ELISA
Enzyme linked to antigen or antibody, after immunological reaction and separation of a chromogenic substrate of the given enzyme is added. If complex exist, colour reaction.

Particels in Beta-radiation?
Electron and positron
Which radiation has longest effective distance?
Gamma
Which radiation has strongest effective pervasiveness?
