Laboratory Testing

You cannot say for certain. Without knowing the exact genetical make-up (genotype) of both parents, the child could belong to any blood group (type): A, B, AB, or O.

If the mother has blood group B, her genotype must be either IBIB or IBi. The father must, similarly, be IAIA or IAi. The child could therefore have any of the following genotypes:

IAIB (type AB)

IAi (type A)

IBi (type B)

ii (type O)

We cannot calculate probabilities without knowing parents' genotypes

Depends if the parents are heterozygous and homozygous. Homozygous meaning that they have the same alleles, heterozygous meaning that they have different alleles, but one allele is dominant.

If they have homozygous the chances are impossible, if they are heterozygous then there is a chance.

Yes, in some cases of gonorrhea, pus or blood can be present in the urine due to inflammation of the urethra caused by the infection. Other common symptoms of gonorrhea include painful urination and discharge from the genitals. It is important to seek medical evaluation and treatment if you suspect you have gonorrhea.

In the early stages of an infection, most of the increase in WBCs is attributable to the increase in neutrophils. As the infection continues, lymphocytes increase. Worm infections can trigger an increase in eosinophils, whereas allergic conditions, such as hay fever, trigger an increase in basophils.

The progeny could have any of the 4 blood groups, viz., A, B, AB and O. (positive only)

The ABO blood typing system is an example of codominance. In codominance, both the alleles are expressed.

Type O is ii. The alleles are i and i.

Type A is iIA. The alleles are i and IA.

Thus, it can form either O or A.

Type O blood is the absence of genes that code for transferases. Therefore the H substance (L-fucose) on the surface of RBCs remains unmodified.

The A gene codes for the production of alpha-3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase. This enzyme is responsible for adding N-acetyl-D-galactosamine to the H substance.

The father's blood type would have to be A. This is because O is a recessive blood type and needs two O's to produce a child with and O blood type. So if the daughter is an A blood type so must her biological father's.

If its contamination your talking about.ALL if not only O.

The risk of Rh incompatibility arises when the mother is Rh-negative and the fetus is Rh-positive. In this case, the first pregnancy is usually not at high risk, but subsequent pregnancies can be affected if the mother has been sensitized to the Rh antigen. To prevent complications, the mother may receive Rh immunoglobulin to prevent sensitization.

It is possible for your husband to have blood type B positive if one of his parents carried the B gene along with O gene. Another possibility is that he has AB positive blood type, where he inherited one gene for A and one for B. Regular blood type testing for your husband is recommended to confirm his blood type.

An O mother and an O father will always have an O child. They cannot have A, B or AB.

As far as the Rh factor the baby can be positive or negative.

There are rare instances when this will not be accurate. In the case of a mutation, the blood typing may not hold true in the question of parentage. Ask before you act! A DNA test will give a final definitive answer.

An in vivo test is a scientific experiment or study conducted within a living organism, such as a test subject or animal model. This type of testing allows researchers to observe the effects of a substance, treatment, or intervention within a complex biological system to better understand its potential impact on human health.

0.07 s not a low TSH level for most labs, but if it is low on the test you had, and with your high free T3 result, your dose of armour thyroid should be reduced from 120. So your doctor was correct in decreasing the dose, because your lab results show it was too high and they show you are hyperthyroid

A doctor will general run a blood test to check your cholesterol levels. This is called a lipid panel or a lipid profile. There are also test kits that you can use at home to have analysed at a lab, like this one: www.cholesterolcheck.org

High RDW (red cell distribution width) on a hematology test indicates variability in red blood cell size. This can be seen in conditions such as anemia, nutritional deficiencies, or certain chronic diseases. Further evaluation is often needed to determine the specific cause of the high RDW.

This depends on the type of urine test done. The basic urine tests will detect alcohol up to 48 hours depending on the weight of the person and how much was ingested. Some newer test can detect up to 80 hours.

Yes, depending on the genotypes of the parents. It the parents are both heterozygous for their blood type, then the child could have the recessive type-O allele. Each parent has two alleles in their blood types, one from their mother, one from their father like most simple genetics. If Parent A has the genotype AO and Parent B has the genotype BO then it is possible for them to have a child with the genotype OO which means O-type. These to parents have:

B O

A AB AO

O BO OO

They would have a 25% chance of having a child with AB-type, 25% chance of having a child with B-type, 25% chance of having a child with A-type and a 25% chance of having a child with O-type.

A serum separator tube (SST) with gold or red/gray marble stopper is typically used for a comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP) as it can separate the serum from the cells after centrifugation, allowing for accurate test results.

To use a drying tube, you connect it to a reaction vessel or equipment that needs to be free of moisture. The drying tube contains a desiccant, such as calcium chloride or silica gel, which absorbs any moisture present in the gas passing through it, ensuring a dry atmosphere within the system. Make sure to periodically check and replace the desiccant to maintain its effectiveness.

A red-top tube without gel separator is typically used for collecting blood samples to measure blood levels of lamictal (lamotrigine). However, it is best to confirm with the specific laboratory where the test will be done, as tube colors can vary depending on the lab's protocol.

The son inherited the B blood type from one parent and Rh positive from the other parent, making his blood type B positive. Since the mother is blood type A positive, she must have passed on the A allele to her daughter, resulting in blood type O positive. The Rh positive trait is dominant, so the daughter and son both have Rh positive blood.

The urine in the gray top tube is typically used for specific gravity testing to measure the concentration of solutes in the urine. The double-ended straw helps transfer the urine without contaminating the sample.

There are typically two red top tubes used for blood collection in clinical settings: one containing no additives (plain tube) and one containing a clot activator. The specific number may vary based on the brand or type of tubes being used.

A purple top test tube is typically used for TPO (thyroid peroxidase) testing. The specific color coding may vary by laboratory, so it's always best to confirm with the specific lab where the test will be done.

While there is no scientific basing behind this, blood type A is calm, patient, sensitive, responsible, overcautious, stubborn, and unable to relax. However, this is no different than a horoscope or temperament in the classical sense.
