MedScientist: Bone Marrow Aspiration!
http://med-scientist-in-action.blogspot.com/2009/10/bone-marrow-aspiration.html
Today's science fiction is tomorrow's science fact. Tuesday, October 6, 2009. I will discuss with all of you about Bone Marrow Aspiration (BMA) and the respective tests done. First, what is BMA? It is the removal of a small amount of bone marrow, which is the soft tissue in liquid form inside the bones (place where blood cells formed; hollow part of most bones) for examination. Why do we need to do BMA? Where is BMA obtain from? How is BMA obtain? Traplok Bone Marrow Biopsy Needle (blue T-shape needle is...

Group Members: Eriko Wong; Nurul Natasha; Nurul Nyzah; Ong Wendy; Siti Shahimah. Friday, October 16, 2009. 1 Proteins in the samples (urine and serum) are separated by electrophoresis on agarose gel. 2 Immunofixation of electrophoresed proteins includes, the monospecific antisera diffuse into. Agarose gel and bind to the antigens (proteins), if present. Thus, resulting in the precipitation. 3 The unprecipitated antigens are removed from the gel by blotting and washing. Of the fractions is dark in colour.
