also known as POTENTIATORS
22% Bovine albumin/Low Ionic Strength solution
22% BOVINE ALBUMIN/ LOW IONIC STRENGTH
SOLUTION is also known as
Potentiators
POTENTIATORS promotes increase in zeta potential and incubation time which promotes test specificity
True or False
promotes decrease in zeta potential; promotes test sensitivity
FALSE
