What is the part of the enzyme that binds with the substrate?
The part of the enzyme where the substrate attaches itself to is known as the "active site". The active site of an enzyme is a part of the molecule that has just the right shape and functional groups to bind to one of the reacting molecules. The reacting molecule that binds to the enzyme is called the substrate.

How is the Aspartate aminotransferase test done?
AST is determined by analysis of a blood sample, usually from taken from a venipuncture site at the bend of the elbow
Where is venous access done?
For peripheral venipuncture the common site is usually a vein in the arm (the anticubital fossa located on the opposite side of the elbow)
Why you should sterilize the venipuncture site of the blood donor by using both of iodine and alcohol?
There are many reasons to sterilize the venipuncture site of a blood donor using both iodine and alcohol. The main concern and reason to do this is sanitation and bacteria transfer. By sanitizing the area and the needle, bacteria are less likely to enter the puncture wound and infect a donor's bloodstream.
What are the risks of a creatinine test?

What risks are associated with a catecholamine test?

What preparation is necessary before a hemoglobin test?
No special preparation is required other than cleaning and disinfecting the skin at the puncture site. Blood is collected in a tube by venipuncture.
How long do you hold pressure to venipuncture site on Patient taking coumadin?
Until it stops bleeding, which may take several minutes.
What risks exist for the patient in undergoing an erythropoietin test?
