16
Q

Uses radioactive substances as labels

A

radioimmunoassay

17
Q

The condition of being resistant to infection

18
Q

2 types of immunity

A
  1. natural
  2. acquired
19
Q
  • Innate/ non-adaptive/ non-specific
  • Ability of an individual to resist infections by
    means of normally present body functions
  • Present at birth
A

natural immunity

20
Q
  • adaptive/specific
  • a reaction resulting from
    invasion of foreign substances
  • (surviving an infection from foreign substance)
A

acquired immunity

21
Q

types of acquired immunity

A
  1. active
  2. passive
22
Q
  1. mechanisms involved are non-specific
  2. mechanisms that pre-exists the invasion of foreign agents
  3. components are pre-formed
  4. non-adaptive, has standardized magnitude of response
  5. lacks immunologic memory
A

innate immunity

23
Q
  1. reinforcement
  2. inducibility
  3. specificity
  4. memory
  5. specialization
  6. self-limitation
  7. discrimination
A

adaptive immunity

24
Q

Refers to the collection, processing, typing and
storage of whole blood and other blood
products

A

blood banking

25
Also known as Immunohematology
blood banking
26
Study of immunologic principles applied in blood group specific antigens and antibodies
blood banking
27
deals with mechanism of blood typing and crossmatching, detectoin and measurement of antibody titers, screening of donors for blood donation, bleeding techniques, proper labeling, storing and disposal of blood emphasis on quality assurance.
blood banking
28
2 types of blood banking
1. forward/direct 2. reverse/back
29
Detection of antigens on patients RBC using known commercial anti-sera
forward/direct typing
30
- Detection of antibodies in serum of patient with known commercial RBCs - To check if the blood type of the forward is correct
reverse/back typing
31
4 types of blood donation
1. allogenic 2. directed 3. autologous 4. apheresis
32
Involves donation of blood for the use of general public
allogenic donation
32
Involves donation of blood for the use of general public
allogenic donation
33
Involves donation of blood use of specific patient
directed donation
34
Donate blood for your own use in the future
autologous donation
35
- Donate specific component of blood - maximizing blood - separate blood to components
apheresis donation
36
6 steps in bonor screening & collection
1. Registration 2. Health or Medical History 3. Physical Examination 4. Phlebotomoy 5. Post-Donation Care 6. Serological Testing of donor’s blood
