The person giving blood to another person is known as the?
Donor
The person the blood was given to is known as the?
Recipient
If you have ever had hepatitis, HIV, or any other related disease why must you not take part in this lab?
Because you risk spreading the disease to others through your blood.
Why should antisera not be added directly to a blood sample
Because it could potentially contaminate it.
What should you do if your skin comes into contact with another persons blood?
Wash your hands immediately with hot water and soap
Why must all these materials in this lab be sterilized before disposal?
So the materials don’t have any blood left on them that could potentially harm someones health.
Why must spilled blood be wiped immediately with a strong bleach solution?
To disinfect the area so there is no risk of spreading disease or other viruses through touching the blood.

infection
What does elevated numbers of epsinophils indicate?
allergic reaction or parasitic worms
What does elevated numbers of basophils indicate?
infection/allergic reaction
