Can ammonium chloride lyse red blood cells?
yes.
Is staining what you call it if you diluted a blood sample with distilled water and the red blood cells burst?
You can certainly expect the blood cells to stain the water as their cell membranes rupture from being in a hypotonic solution. The term that describes this is "To lyse". Blood cells lyse in distilled water.
What could you do to reduce interference from red blood cells?
Mix the blood in a hypotonic solution, which will cause the RBCs to lyse.
What is the order of steps when extracting hemoglobin from red blood cells?
Separate cells from plasma, lyse cells, precipitate protein, dialyze protein sample.
What do lysosomes do in white blood that cells eat bacteria?
lyse=to break lysosome is an enzyme present in white blood cells or in leucocytes which break the cell wall of bacteria
Can ammonia affect a blood sample?
Yesyou can spray a lot of things to ruin the blood sample. Chemical composition changes and the cells can lyse.
What is the correct order of experimental steps when extracting hemoglobin from red blood cells?
Separate cells from plasma, lyse cells, precipitate protein, dialyze protein sample
Why does lysolecithin lyse red blood cells?
It could be because lysolecithin is a toxin that causes vasoconstriction affecting iron in the red blood cells which could be affected by lysolecithin being a "potent membrane modifier" and have an influence on free radicals, especially vitamin E. I don't really know an answer but this seems to make some sense.
What is the Effect of adding water to collected blood sample?
water has the wrong biochemcal properties for the cells within the blood and so they will lyse (cell wall disruption)
Do the cells in your body swell and lyse when you drink water?
No. Your cells need salt in then to swell. Also "lyse" means to break. Your cells do not break when and if you drink water. So the answer is no.
Do red blood cell absorb water?
yes, if the blood cells absorb too much water, they can "lyse" or burst. therefore, drinking too much water is dangerous.
What is the word that means when a cell swells and burst?
hemolysisSorry hemolysis is the incorrect term for when a cell bursts. It's called cytolysis when cells burst open. Hemolysis is a type of cytolysis, referring to the bursting of red blood cells.
