19
Q

Used to calibrate to deliver pipets

A

Distilled water

20
Q

Used to verify pipette volume accuracy and precision

A

Gravimetric and spectrometric methods

21
Q

What are pipet tips made of?

A

Q

Samples flow through a common reaction vessel; air bubbles at regular intervals serve as separating and cleaning media

A

Continuous flow analyzer

23
Q

It uses force generated by centrifuge to transfer specimen and reagents

A

Centrifugal analyzer

24
Q

Measures only the tests requested on samples; allow stat and random acces

A

Discrete analyzer

25
Principle of dry slide technology
Reflectance photometry
26
Is the measurement of light reflected from solid surfaced
Reflectance photometry
27
All samples are loaded at the same time and a single test is done on each sample
Batch testing
28
More than one test is analyzed concurrently on a given specimen
Parallel testing
29
Any test can be performed on a sample at any sequence
Random access testing
30
Multiple tests are analyzed one after another
Sequential testing
31
A system other than manufacturer's reagents can be used
Open reagent system
32
A system whete the operator can only use the manufacturer's reagents
Closed reagent system
33
Provides point to point delivery of specimens
Pneumatic tube delivery system
34
Most commonly used glassware
Borosilicate
