  1. 1. blown out type, used for viscous samples, has bulb near tip and has etched mark near mouth.
  2. 4. maker of this puzzle
  3. 6. is used to concentrate urine sediment in urinalysis for microscopic viewing.
  4. 8. is a technique used by particles to trap small Ags, labeled or unlabeled.
  5. 12. is the main regulator of the expression of ENaC on the luminal membrane through its genomic effect on the activity of serum and glucocorticoid-regulated kinase 1 (SGK-1), and therefore the main determinant of renal excretion of potassium.
  6. 13. convert revolutions per minute (RPM) to relative force (RCF), or g force, use the following formula: RCF = (RPM)2 × 1.118 × 10-5 × r.
  7. 14. this automation all samples are carried through the same analysis pathway; one sample, one test,and air bubbles is used.
  8. 15. the sample has serum bilirubin approaches to 430 mmol/L (25 mg/L), interference may be observed in assays for albumin, cholesterol (using ferric chloride reagents), and total protein (Biuret procedure).
  9. 16. be encountered when testing for hormones, iron, acid phosphatase, and urinary excretion of most electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and phosphate.
  10. 17. initially seen as scleral icterus when the patient has total serum bilirubin concentrations above 2 mg/dL.
  11. 18. affects the K, LDH, ACP, AST, Aldolase, Mg, PO4, ALB, and TP; but K is the most affected intracellular cation.
Down
  1. 2. is a substance that causes particles to congeal in a group or mass, particularly a typical antibody that occurs in the blood serums of immunized and normal human.
  2. 3. is Higher in the morning, the best time is at 6:00-8:00 AM. It peaks: 4-6 AM, lowest 8PM-12AM, lower: 8PM than 8AM
  3. 5. error is the difference between the target/truevalue and the assay value independent of the analyte concentration.
  4. 7. this automation, the sample is handled in a separate compartment, and performed on a batch basis and it is STAT capable.
  5. 9. on muscle mass, it can increase by 110% in plasma and by 60% in serum after 48 to 56 hours, secreted but is also reabsorbed.
  6. 10. the standard or calibrator, near the true and could result in systematic error.
  7. 11. for 72 hours decreases plasma glucose levels in healthy women to 45 mg/dL (2.5 mmol/L), while men show an increase in plasma triglycerides, glycerol, and free fatty acids, with no significant change in plasma cholesterol.
