Hemolysis of a capillary specimen can be caused by intense squeezing of the skin. It can also be caused by the scraping of blood at the surface of the skin. If this occurs, adding warmth will ensure sufficient blood collection.
Microscopically, a sputum specimen containing AFB reveals what rods?

yes! your specimen will be hemoconcentrated! if you have a long draw, just lift up on the tourniquet every now and then...the blood flow will be much better, and the specimen shouldn't get hemolysized!
Hemolysis results when red blood cells are destroyed or damaged during collection and the hemoglobin and other intracellular components leak into the fluid portion of the specimen. This yields pink to red serum or plasma depending on the severity degree of hemolysis.
Hemolysis
The hemolysis is called green hemolysis because of the color change in the agar.
Hemolysis is when the red blood cells break open.
Beta hemolysis
Target hemolysis is caused by the bacteria closteridium perfringens. there is a narrow zone of complete hemolysis due to theta toxin sorrounded by incomplete zone of hemolysis due to alpha toxin
is bacillus subtilis beta or alpha hemolysis
