Solution Concentration

Weight/Volume: weight out solute, add to volumetric flask and then fill to 100mL



Weight/Weight: Weight out solute and add to a beaker, and then add solvent until it reaches 100g



Volume/Volume: Add amount of solute desired in mL to a volumetric flask, then fill to 100mL with solvent.

Benedict's test

Reacts with reducing sugars when boiled, converting Cu-II to Cu-I (Blue to red)



Tablet form is called Clinitest

Glucose Oxidase

Converts glucose to H2O2 and the peroxidase converts it to a dye measured at 500nm



Most specific for Beat-D-Glucose

Glucose oxidase samples

Blood glucose decreases by 7% per hour of not properly stored.



Stable for 24 hours if refrigerated and removed from the clot.

Glucose Oxidase Interfeirnces

Grossly lipemic samples

Glucose Oxidase Normal ranges

70-105mg/dL

Glucose Hexokinase

Glucose is phosphorylated in the presence of magnesium and ATP



Glucose 6 phosphate is then oxidized in the presence of NAD, producing NADH. This creates a measurable increase in absorbance

Glucose Hexokinase samples

Stabled for 4 days at 4c if removed from the clot.



severly Lipmeic or hemolized samples should not be used.

Glucose Hexokinase normal range

65-110mg/dL



Range: 0-600mg/dL

DNSA

Detects reducing sugars. Changes from yellow to red when boiled with them.



Not as popular as Benedicts

A1C normal ranges

4-6%



Can be up to 15-20% in diabtics



A1C test purpose

Monitores Glucose levels over the past 4-8 weeks

A1C storage

a week if refrigerated

A1C test

Goat-Antimouse polyclonal Ab agglutinates with Ag on a latex bead after binding to A1C on RBCs

A1C interferiences

Opiate addiction, Lead poisoning, alcoholism, or large asprin doses.

Diabetes Diagonoses

Glucose greater than or equal to 200mg/dL regardless of last meal time



or



a fasting glucose of 126mg/dL or greater

Hypoglyciemia

Blood glucose less than 150mg/dL

Lactose intolerance causes

Natural reduction of Lactase after infancy



Damage to the intestinal lining

Lactose Intolerance testing

Mucosal biopsy to test for lactase



Breath hydrogen test: 2-5uL/L is normla, 30-100uL/L is lacotse intolerance

Biuret test

Minimum of two pepetides bond for reaction



Peptide bonds react with Cu2+ in alkaline solutions resulting in a blue product that reads out at 540nm



measures total protien

Total protein specimens

Lipemia and gross hemolysis causes false results



Stable for 1 week at room temprature or one month if refrigerated

Total protein ranges

healthy 6.3-8.3g/dL in mobile adults



6.0-7.8g/dL in imobile adults



range: 1-15g/dL

Albumin Sample

Avoid hemolysed samples



Stores for 1 week at room temp or 1 month if refrigertated.

Albumin dyes

BCG or BCP (purple or green)



Ampacillin and penacillin interfier with BCG

Albumin ranges

3.2-5.2g/dL

See slides 30-37

XXX

Electrophorieses trouble shooting

Distorted bands: Bent applicators, air bubbles during application, to much sample, to much drying during electrophoreises



Unusual bands: Artifacts from hemolyzed samples, band at starting point is likely fibrinogin

Immunofixation electrophoresis
