Can you be tested for genital herpes with no outbreak?
Yes its possible.
There is a blood test for herpes. But it should be done at least 6-8 weeks after you were exposed to it. Testing too early after being exposed can lead to false results.
The relative purity of a color is referred to as?
The relative purity of a color is referred to as its saturation. Saturation describes the intensity or vividness of a color, ranging from pure color (fully saturated) to mixed with gray (desaturated).
There are many people who would not be alive if blood banks were not established and on hand to supply the needed donations of blood, and continue to require a new transfusion fairly often; they certainly need blood banks.
If both parents are O positive can child be A positive or A negative?
The child can only have type O blood. In the ABO blood group, A and B are dominant while O is recessive. All the possible genotypes are: AO, AA, BO, BB, AB, and OO. The first two are type A phenotypes and the next set of two are type B phenotypes. The Rh gene works similarly with positive (+) being dominant and negative (-) being recessive. If both O+ parents were heterozygous (+/- expressing only the + phenotype) there is a one in four chance that the baby will be O-.
What is a normal AST result in blood tests?
A normal range for AST (aspartate aminotransferase) in blood tests is typically between 10 to 40 units per liter. However, the normal range can vary slightly between different laboratories. Elevated AST levels may indicate liver damage, muscle damage, or other health conditions.
What are the Normal and abnormal values in fecalysis and its interpretation?
RBC: 1-3 HPF
WBC: 6-8 HPF
Bacteria: Abundant
If the mother has type A positive and father has type O negative what type blood will the baby have?
They would most likely have O Type A blood is really type AO blood, (B= BO) So if you have Type... O and AO, they would most likely be O
To the above answerer, Type A blood can be AA blood. If the mother has AA blood, the child will have AO blood no matter what. If the mother has AO blood, The baby might have OO or AO blood. (O blood can only be OO) Not too sure about if negatives or positives affect the baby's blood type though.
Since albumin is low in many different diseases and disorders, albumin testing is used in a variety of settings to help diagnose disease,and to monitor changes in health status.
Low albumin levels can suggest liver disease, or other liver enzyme tests are ordered to determine exactly which type of liver disease. Low albumin levels can reflect diseases in which the kidneys cannot prevent albumin from leaking from the blood into the urine and being lost. In this case, the amount of albumin (or protein) in the urine also may be measured (see microalbumin). Low albumin levels can also be seen inflammation , shock, and malnutrition. Low albumin levels may also suggest conditions in which your body does not properly absorb and digest protein (like Crohn's disease or sprue) or in which large volumes of protein are lost from the intestines. High albumin levels usually reflect dehydration. These tests can either be done through urine or a simple blood test, but either way they are fairly minor.
When should you stop eating night before blood test?
Pssh, if you need to stop eating to have acceptable , you're in trouble. When you have work done or give , it's important to eat a little something.
If you had any real sense, though, you'd ask your doctor.
The eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) is a number based on your blood test for creatinine. It tells how well your kidneys are working
Mother is o positive and father is o positive Does this mean baby will be o positive?
No. There's a small chance the baby will be O negative--if both parents have an Rh negative (recessive) allele, and the baby inherits this allele from both parents, the baby would be Rh negative. But if the baby inherits the Rh positive allele from either parent, the baby will be Rh positive.
On average the body is able to metabolize about 2 ounces of alcohol per hour which is about 1 beer, 1 mixed drink or 1 average glass of wine. There are variables though so to be safe; just do not drink. A really long time.
What blood type can o positive donate to?
O positive has no A antigens or B antigens and so can donate to people with A type, B type and AB type. However they as it is positive it does have the rhaesis antigen and so can only dontate to other positive type people. (A+, B+ and AB+)
What is a good sentence for autopsy?
Before declaring a cause of death, the officers waited for the autopsy results.
What did buddy strait's autopsy show?
Methadone. Can be used to treat heroin addiction OR for diabetic pain. Results were 5/19/2009
Which organ may be damaged by high levels of cholesterol in the blood?
The answer most people would give is the heart but that is only partly true.
Research has shown that it is not necessarily the level of cholesterol that is a direct cause of any particular illness, it is the oxidation or modification of the LDL cholesterol that is the villain. Actually it is the VLDL (very low density lipoprotein) and other subclasses of LDL that pose the problems related to cardiovascular deterioration.
The fact is that modified cholesterol causes sytemic damage not specific to any one organ.
Hope this helped you.
Can o positive parents have a child with blood type a positive?
No. Type O blood is a recessive trait. If both parents have type O then they are not carriers for type A, type B, or type AB. It would be impossible for their offspring to have any other blood type than type O.
What is the difference between total dissolved solids and total suspended solids?
total dissolved solids is how much of the solid is dissolved in the liquid, while suspended total suspended solids is the amount of the solid floating in the liquid. e.g. if you had a solution with both and you filtered the solution then evaporated out the liquid, the solids that you filtered out would be the suspended solids, and the the solids remaining after evaporating the liquid out would be the disolved solids.
They hold everything in place, keep you warm and prevent the insides of your trousers getting stained. The main reason though is convention, people are taught to wear them as children and continue to do so as adults out of habit.
If a mothers rh d negative and the fathers o positive can they have an A positive child?
If the mother's ABO bloodtype is A or AB, yes.
As with the majority of genes, we have two copies of both the ABO bloodtype gene and of the Rhesus gene, with the phenotype dependent on the genotype as follows:
AA or AO = A Blood type
BB or BO = B Blood type
AB = AB Blood type
OO = O Blood type
Rh- Rh- = Rhesus negative
Rh+ Rh- or Rh+ Rh+ = Rhesus positive
In this case an O+ father can be either OO Rh+Rh+ or OO Rh+Rh-. His child is guaranteed to receive one copy of the O blood type gene, and either an Rh+ or an Rh- gene dependent on his genotype: either ORh- or ORh+.
If the mother is Rhesus negative she must have the Rh-Rh- genotype. If her ABO bloodgroup is AB or A then she is able to give an A gene to her child. With the father's O gene guaranteed, if the child receives an A gene from its mother than it will definitely have the blood group A, and will be Rhesus positive if it receives an Rh+ from its father.
