Data Interpretation for an MMT assay: Absorbance (OD) values that are lower than the control cells indicate a reduction in the rate of cell proliferation. Conversely a higher absorbance rate indicates an increase in cell proliferation. Rarely, an increase in proliferation may be offset by cell death; evidence of cell death may be inferred from morphological changes.

What is the syntax for a COUNT function?

=COUNT(cells) Cells can be the reference to the cell range you want to count. Say you want to count values in the cells from A2 to V20, then you would do it this way: =COUNT(A2:V20)


How do you diagnose CMV?

There are various ways in which to diagnose CMV (cytomegalovirus): 1. a cell culture from the urine, pharynx, or blood 2. cell recovery from an organ 3. an antibody increase in the blood 4. a PCR (polymerase chain reaction) assay 5. an immunofluorescent assay 6. an indirect hemagglutination assay and 7. a latex agglutination assay.


Are there critical or panic values for a red blood cell count?

There is not a critical/panic value associated with red blood cell counts. The RBC is usually not clinically significant but the hemoglobin and hematocrit are. Hematocrit is calculated using the red count, that is why it is needed.

What is a competition assay?

A completion assay is an experiment in which the cell growth and death of two cell lines, one with the gene of interest silenced and the other used as a control, are compared to draw conclusions about the effect of knocking down the gene of interest.

What is the difference between count and countA?

Count: counts the number of cells with numeric values in a range. Counta: counts the number of cells containing data (letters or numbers) in a range. Counta counts the number of non-blank cells in a range. Counta will therefore exclude any empty cells, which would be included if the count function were used.


What are some lab terms?

WBC = white bloodcell count RBC = red blood cell count MCV = mean cell volume MCH = mean cell hemoglobine RDW = random distribution width (doesn't say that much in a CBC) Ab lymp = lymphocytes absolute (= percentage of lymphocytes X wbc) Please take a closer look at the lab report, the reference values (= values of a healthy subject) should be on there too.


What is clonogenic assay?

Clonogenic assay is based on the ability of a single cell to grow into a colony.This helps us to know that every cell in the population fo rits ability to undergo unlimited division. This is to determine the cell reproductive death after treatment with ionizing radiation ,can also used to study about the effectiveness of other cytotoxic agents.
