What is the best agent to use BM cyclin - a combination of two antibiotics
against mycoplasma? (tiamulin and minocycline) that effecticely
targets mycoplasma growth
For successful harvest, each new comparing the new lot to a lot already in use
batch of hypotonic solution should
be evaluated by:
Colagenase, pronase, and trypsin Proteolytic enzymes - break down tissues into
are: singlecell suspensions
When harvesting peripheral blood cultures, Colcemid - mitotic spindle poison that
asceptic technique no longer matters following halts cells at metaphase
incubation with:
,Samples that arrive at the cytogenetics lab Logged in to the system
should first be:
Phytohemagglutinin (PHA) stimulates which T-cell lymphocytes
type of cells into division?
To avoid culture failure, monitoring reagents is Expiration dates of reagents used
crucial. When logging a culture failure, what is
the MOST important to document?
Which type of microscope is used when Dissection
cleaning a CVS (chorionic villus) sample?
Which cell type is most problematic if found in Decidua (maternal tissue)
a CVS (chorionic villus) sample?
innappropriate slide drying time
When looking at a slide under a phase contrast
scope and a lot of cytoplasm is still seen
around the mets, what is the most likely cause?
, What will help prevent Asceptic technique
microbial contamination and
cross contamination of
cultures?
When there are not prepare additional slides from any remaining sample enough
mets to complete the study of a patient/case, what needs to be done next?
When looking at aIncreading the drying time by using warm slides
dropped slide under a phase scope and mets are very spread out and
sparse, what could help fix the issue?
What is true of an invertedthe objectives are beneath the stage
microscope?
DiGenorge syndrome -- microdeletion of 22q11, also called
velocardiofacial syndrome
High-resolution banding is
"velo" - soft palette,
indicated for a possible
"cardio" - congenital heart defects,
diagnosis of:
"facial" - unique abnormal facial features, short philtrum
(upper lip indent), tubular nose, wide spread eyes, etc
When verifying if aReason for referral specimen
is appropriate for cytogenetic analysis,
what is the MOST important data to accompany
the specimen?
