A blood experiment was performed testing four different patients blood to find out their specific blood types. Blood types are categorized in four blood groups based upon the antigen ( proteins on the surface of blood cells that can cause a response from the immune system) ("Rh factor" 2006) on the surface of the red blood cell. The blood groups are A, B, AB and O, names which are broken down from the ABO blood group system. Although simulated blood was used for the experiment a standard blood typing outcome was still obtained. After conducting the experiment I was able to identify each patients blood type by comparing the antigens and antibodies found within the blood.
Materials and Methods ( American Red Cross) The testing was done very carefully and strategically but does not mean that the results could not yield from a possible error. Errors could have occurred from mixing to much antiserum with the respected blood types giving a false outcome. An error could also happen from not mixing serums well enough to get agglutination leading to the conclusion that the antigen was not present in the blood. According to all the data obtained I feel each individuals’ blood type was identified properly and carefully utilizing all materials and methods required.
Answers from questions in lab book: Based on what has been observed I think the antiserum contain antibodies against specific antigens located within the simulated blood. The blood type considered to be the universal donor is O- and the universal recipient is AB+. I believe that not all people with Rh negative blood have the antibodies for Rh positive blood but, I do think that your body is able to produce them when needed. A perfect example is an Rh negative woman who becomes pregnant with an Rh positive baby. A woman body may produce antibodies in response to the Rh positive baby. “If a small amount of the baby's blood mixes with your blood, which often happens, your body may respond as if it were allergic to the baby. Your body may make antibodies to the Rh antigens in the baby's
Chapter 12: Blood Pressure Lab (Virtual) Name : You may want to print this paper out and write your answers on it and then type it on the one you are submitting. Experiment: For each age group, there are 10 individuals. All blood pressures will be taken at once and displayed. The AVERAGE blood pressure is placed within this table from that group and gender. To determine average blood pressure readings. There were 10 males between the ages of 11-17. Here is the data that was provided: 126/80…

What Happens to Your Blood? Registration The registration process is the initial step. Here, we confirm your identity by asking for your Kaiser identification card and a photo identification card. This is very important so that the proper specimen labels and accordingly the proper tests are performed and reported to the correct patient. A registration process must be performed when you submit the sample to the laboratory, the sample cannot be dropped-off without this process. Collection It…
Summary of what the article was about: The article that I have found and chose to write about, “Blood, Sweat, and Fears” by Vince McLeod and Glenn Ketcham discusses the significant concerns for forensic scientist and the preventing of potential contact contamination of body fluids during collection of evidence in the field or evaluation and analysis in the laboratory. The article explains that any inadvertent exposures to diseases like HIV, hepatitis virus or other pathogens that pose risks should…
Assignment: BIO112 Phase 5 Lab Report TITLE: Diseases and Disorders INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the Virtual Lab, and examine the areas of the heart. Then, proceed to examine test results for each patient. Please type your answers. When your lab report is complete, submit this document to the classroom. Part I: Examine the human heart, and answer the following questions. 1. What do the coronary arteries supply blood to? Coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle 2. Name 2 risk…
already started doing blood tests for the next three suspects before we got the call so instead of adding Irene in the next Blood tests we added Cesar. The blood we found on the commander was taking and compared with the blood of Celestine, Cesar, and Lamar. After doing the blood tests we discovered that the blood found at the crime scene was type A( commanders blood type) and the murderers blood which was unknown at this time. Out of the three suspects we had, Lamar had type A blood, Celestine had…
document to report your findings from the CardioLab Exploration Experiment. The lab report consists of three sections: Data, Exploration, and Lab Summary. • Data: copy any data, graphs, charts, or notes that you have saved in your CardioLab online notebook into this section. • Exploration: Answer the questions. The questions in the Exploration section are the same questions in your CardioLab instructions. • Lab Summary: Write a 100- to 200-word summary. Data To copy your data from your…
of this paper is a crime scene investigator working on a homicide case she discovered a few different pieces of evidence that need to be photographed, logged, and recovered from a scene. She describes how she obtained the evidence a handgun, dried blood, and shell casings, and hair that was in the fist of the deceased. Further she describes how she obtains this evidence and what tools she uses, as well as the way in which she packaged the evidence. First responders need to get the…
Lab 1: Diffusion, Osmosis Objective: In this lab we observed osmosis across a semi permeable membrane. Through this experiment, we were able to see the concept of osmosis in action as the water moved from areas of low solute (sucrose) across a membrane areas of higher solute concentration. Another concept we learned in this lab was how tonicity of a solution can affect osmosis into and out of a cell. Materials and Methods: For the first part of this lab, we got a piece of dialysis tubing…
