(Complete & Accurate)
turbidimetry - ANS ✓-Measure of the decrease in intensity of the incident light
beam that is caused by scattering. Results in an inverse relationship between the
light measured and the concentration.
-set up the same way as conventional photometers, which the photodetector
directly in line with the path of the light beam
-Often used in micro to measure bacterial growth and antibiotic sensitivity,
as well as in hematology coagulation analyzers to measure fibrin clot
formation.
osmometry - ANS ✓techniques for measuring the concentration of dissolved
particles by measuring the freezing point of the solution being tested.
chromatography - ANS ✓A technique that is used to separate the components of
a mixture based on the tendency of each component to travel or be drawn across
the surface of another material.
chemiluminescence - ANS ✓the process of changing chemical energy into
light energy with little or no change in temperature

densitometry - ANS ✓measuring the optical density of a substance by shining
light on it and measuring its transmission
electrophoresis - ANS ✓Technique used to separate serum proteins by electrical
charge.
nephelometry - ANS ✓qualitative used for measuring quantities of the Ig classes
in serum. proteins in the sample react with specific Ab. sample placed in the
nephelometer. when light passes through the suspension a portion of light is
scattered.
mass spectrometry - ANS ✓A technique used by toxicologist to identify
chemical compositions. The instrument breaks a chemical down into its ions and
accelerates them in a magnetic field that produces a unique spectrum.
ELISA - ANS ✓an assay that relies on an enzymatic conversion reaction and is
used to detect the presence of specific substances (such as enzymes or viruses or
antibodies or bacteria), Enzyme Linked Immunoassay
FPIA - ANS ✓Fluorescence Polarization Assay
competitive assay
ab binds drug and drug fluorescent conjugate
free fluorescent gives a lower signal than fp bound ab
higher free conc. = lower signal
replaced by EMIT
radiant energy - ANS ✓energy that travels as waves and can move through
empty space in the form of electromagnetic radiation, includes visible light. Also
referred to as light energy, solar energy
end point reactions - ANS ✓reactions that takes place and then stops

kinetic reactions - ANS ✓study of emzyme reaction rates and the factors that
affect them
Beer-lambert law - ANS ✓law stating that intensity of color change is directly
proportional to the concentration of an analyte in a solution
visual spectrum - ANS ✓various wavelengths of light visible to the human eye
(400nm-700nm)
wavelength - ANS ✓the distance from any point on a wave to an identical point
on the next wave
diffraction grating - ANS ✓a device made of thousands of closely spaced slits
through which light is passed in order to produce a spectrum
random access - ANS ✓is the type of automation that preforms all selected tests
on one sample before going to another sample
monochromater - ANS ✓a device for isolating individual wavelengths or
frequencies of light
colorimeter - ANS ✓A light-sensitive device for measuring colors by filtering
their red, green, and blue components, as in the human eye. See also
spectrophoto-meter.
spectrophotometer - ANS ✓measures the ability of a pigment to absorb various
wavelengths of light; directs beams of light of different wavelengths through a
solution of the pigment and measures the fraction of the light transmitted at each
wavelenth, is an instrument which measures turbidity to estimate bacterial
concentrations.

Renal function test - ANS ✓BUN, Creatinine, Used in the diagnosis &
management of illnesses & injuries that cause changes in renal function
refractometer - ANS ✓an instrument used to measure the refractive index of
urine which is an indirect measurement of the specific gravity of urine
osmometer - ANS ✓measures the number of particles present in the urine based
on its freezing temp. milliosmoles/kg of water
nephelometer - ANS ✓Scientific instrument for measuring turbidity.(cloudiness
of water)
Unit is NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units).
immunoassay - ANS ✓test that uses antibodies to detect a substance
random access analyzers - ANS ✓most common systems
allows operators to perform a variety of tests, profiles or combination of
both on any given number of specimens in any order at any time
blood gas analyzers - ANS ✓Measure of O2 and CO2 and pH directly; bicarb and
others are calculated, the specimens used should be arterial blood or arterialized
capillary blood with no air
sandwich technique - ANS ✓Detects antigen sandwiched between 2 antibody
molecules
discrete analyzers - ANS ✓The type of Automation you would use when you
want to do multiple tests on one sample, sample and reagent is in seperate
containers
