What are waived tests?
Waived tests are simple laboratory tests that are exempt from certain regulatory requirements.
What are proficiency tests?
Proficiency tests are assessments used to evaluate the performance of a laboratory in conducting tests.
What is standard deviation in laboratory controls?
Standard deviation is a statistical measure that indicates the amount of variation or dispersion in a set of values.
What are dilution factors?
Dilution factors are ratios used to prepare solutions of lower concentration from a stock solution.
What is the purpose of making up standards?
Making up standards involves preparing known concentrations of substances to calibrate instruments or validate tests.
What are microscope parts and their use?
Microscope parts include the eyepiece, objective lenses, stage, and light source, used for magnifying and illuminating samples.
What is oil immersion in microscopy?
Oil immersion is a technique that uses a special oil to increase the resolution of a microscope by reducing light refraction.
What samples/tubes are used for each area of the laboratory?
Different samples and tubes are designated for specific laboratory areas based on the type of tests being performed.
