I don't know what experiment you're conducting, but when the directions tell you explicitly that you need to use a fresh utensil, then there must be the potential for contamination. Most likely using a different toothpick prevents the contents of slide one from crossing to slide two, which could invalidate your results.

Shape of a human blood smear?
A human blood smear typically has a thin, elongated shape on a glass slide. The thin layer of blood is spread evenly across the slide to allow for visual examination under a microscope. This shape allows for a clear view of the different types of blood cells present in the sample.
How long should the length of a blood smear be on a microscope slide?
The length of a blood smear on a microscope slide should be about 1-2 cm. This size allows for a sufficient area to view the blood cells and morphology under the microscope without overcrowding the slide. Additionally, it makes it easier to scan the whole smear efficiently.
What is another name for a slide that has no liquid or cover slip?
A dry mount slide is a slide that has no liquid or cover slip. This type of slide is commonly used for observing solid specimens under a microscope.
What is the purpose of emulsifying the sample serum in staining procedure?
To promote the cells adhering to the glass slide since they can't be heat fixed. When preparing a capsule stain you have to aseptically add organisms and emulsify with a loop.
The area of a blood smear that is tested is called the?
The area of a blood smear that is tested is called the peripheral blood smear. It is a sample of blood that is spread thinly on a glass slide for examination under a microscope to evaluate the number, shape, and size of blood cells.
Why do we need different toothpicks to mix the blood and serum on slides 1 and 2?
Two toothpicks are used to avoid cross contamination.
How is the antinuclear antibody test prepared?
The antinuclear antibody test is done by adding a person's serum to commercial cells mounted on a microscope slide. If antinuclear antibodies are in the serum, they bind to the nuclei of cells on the slide.
Shape of a human blood smear?
A human blood smear typically has a thin, elongated shape on a glass slide. The thin layer of blood is spread evenly across the slide to allow for visual examination under a microscope. This shape allows for a clear view of the different types of blood cells present in the sample.
What is blood smear?
A blood smear is a sample of blood that is spread thinly on a glass slide, stained, and examined under a microscope. It is used to evaluate the number, morphology, and size of different types of blood cells such as red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. This test helps in diagnosing various blood disorders and infections.
Which part of the interface allows you to select a different layout for your slide?
Slide layout
How are rock slide and mud slide are different?
one has rocks and the other doesnt
How are the blood types and RH determined?
Take blood samples on 3 different slides.on 1 blood sample,put a drop of Anticerum A,on 2nd samle,put a drop of Anticerum B.on 3rd blood sample ,put a drop of RH Factor.leave them a while.if there will b agglutition on RH Factor,s slide,it means Blood group is +(positive),if no agglutition,then Blood group will b _(negative). if there is agglution on Anticerum A,s slide/then blood group will be -A-.if there will be agglution on Anticerum B,s slide,Blood group will be -B-.if agglutition on both slides,blood group will be -AB-,if there is no agglutition on both slides,then blood group will be -O-
How can we use blood samples to diagnose blood pathologies?
Blood samples are very useful for diagnosing blood pathologies because you can place a drop of the blood sample on a slide, fix the sample to the slide and evaluate a large number of blood cells for abnormal shapes, sizes and arrangements. You can also look for parasites in the blood as well as bacterial and fungal infections.
What are three different kinds of debris slides?
landslide, rock slide, debris slide
What happens if platelet count is below 50?
repeat sample analysis,check for clots, make a slide of the blood, and examine the slide microscopically if their are clots present then request for a new blood sample.
What is slide transition?
Slide transitions are the visual movements as one slide changes to another. Many different slide transitions are available in programs such as PowerPoint or OpenOffice Impress.
What is the trombone slide called?
Your either talking about the tuning slide, or the slide. The slide is used to play different notes, just like valves are used on trumpets. There are 7 slide positions, and different slides positions mean different notes. The tuning slide is used to make sure your in tune. If your flat (your pitch is low) then you push in on the tuning slide. If your sharp (your pitch is high) then you push out your tuning slide.
