Right after the donation the blood components are separated into Platelets ( good for 5 days), Plasma ( frozen good for 1year) and red blood cells ( good for 30 days). The testing is done on the extra tubes taking during donation. Testing is done for some chemistry, infectious disease ( HIV, west Nile, Hepatitis B, C, and many more). The blood is typed (A,B,AB,O and RH+/-). It is also tested for poss. bacteria contamination. A complete blood count is performed. After all the test pass acceptability, the components are released to be given. All components are constantly monitored regarding the storage temp.\nBefore blood components are given the recipient is tested to be compatible to the product. ( same blood type and compatible cross match with the donor).\nThe is a lot of checking and double checking involved in blood banking. If you need more or specific info just e-mail me.\nbeen working in blood bank for 20+ years.

only one true way to know and that is a blood test where the amount of hemoglobin and number of red blood cells are counted per ml of blood (hematocrit), classically referred to as an "H & H".  Gerenal sympoms of fatigue, pallor, rapid heartbeat, feeling short of breath may all be signs of anemia or many other things and you will not be able to differentiate this on your own.  Anemia must have a cause (chronic blood loss, acute blood loss, iron defficiency, vitamin B12 defficience, acute viral illness (some types) just to name a few).  Get seen by a doc, get an exam and a blood test to find out.

I am looking for similar test answers but for the BONENT TEST which is for dialysis technicians.  If you receive any info..do you mind posting it?  Thanks in advance.\nRobert

There are two chambers.  Each uses flow cytometry, meaning the cells are lined up and pushed along tubing passed a light source.  The light is picked up on a detector.  When a cell passes by, the light flow is interrupted and it causes a "blip" in the detector.  The size of the "blip" is proportional to the size of the cell.\nIn one chamber, the red cells are counted.  The detecter is set to count only the cells that fall with in the size limits of Red Blood Cells.\nIn the other chamber, the blood is put into a solution that lyses the red blood cells leaving only WBC and platelets intact.  The detector is set to count cells that fall in the platelet range and  in the WBC range of sizes, nuclei size and shape is also detected here and is used to differentiate one type of WBC from another.  It also quantifies hemoglobin here with spectrophotometry.

The reagent is detecting blood.  The doctor will most likely order a repeat urine analysis with a microscopic analysis and some other tests

A reactive VDRL test means that you have syphilis.  If possible, ask your health care provider about the titration of your sample.  They should be able to tell you if you are weakly reactive or strongly reactive.  Sometimes people show up as weakly reactive if they've tested positive for it and have already taken the medicine.  Talk to your health care provider.

are you sure it's in a urine test?  occult blood is usually in the stool.  Fresh red blood is called "frank blood"  "occult blood" means you are bleeding somewhere internally but by the time you eliminate the blood it is dark and can't be seen; that is why they test for it.

Litmus tests for acidity are probably the most well-known, but there are lots and lots of them. The Encyclopaedia Britannica article below is pretty thorough.\n\nGood luck.

Two Rapid Test Kits Algorithm:-\n\n The initial test used for HIV screening should have the highest possible sensitivity and an internal procedural control to indicate the test has been performed correctly. With a sensitive screening test, the predictive value of a negative test result is high, and specimens non-reactive on the screening test are considered HIV-antibody negative. However, because the predictive value of a positive test varies with the prevalence of HIV infection in the population tested, the positive predictive value of a test will be low in populations with low prevalence. Thus, all reactive screening tests require confirmation. Many developed countries continue to use the Western blot to confirm reactive POC rapid tests. The alternative confirmatory strategy currently advocated by WHO requires three assays based on different principles or antigens. In practice, it can be difficult to ascertain which specific antigens are present in a given test. The WHO and Joint United Nations Programme on AIDS developed guidelines for in-country evaluations for the selection of rapid HIV tests for use in combination algorithms. The overall accuracy of the testing algorithm depends on the characteristics of the specific tests, the order in which the tests are used, and on the rules for resolving discordant results. The second and third tests in the algorithm should be selected on the basis of high specificity. The number of initial discordant results from the first two tests should not exceed 5%. If it does, quality assurance procedures should be checked, or a new test combination should be adopted. However, confirmatory algorithms based on combinations of screening tests can be difficult to validate. Many published studies of confirmatory strategies use a combination of two sensitive EIAs as the standard for comparison. Evaluations that compare results to the Western blot often exclude indeterminate specimens. This approach can overestimate the specificity of individual tests.

Complete blood count with manual differential (smearing the blood on a glass slide, staining it and doing the differential, or categorizing the white blood cells by looking at them.  Comprehensive metabolic would probably be what we would call a full chem panel, with electrolytes, and enzymes testing a variety of biochemical systems in your body.
