Detection Methodologies - Quiz 3 and 4
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Optical Detection | Light scattered by a cell is converted to an electrical pulse. |
| Spectrophotometry | measures light transmitted by a solution to determine concentration with regard to wavelenght |
| Chemilluminescence | Process of generating photons of light via an oxidative reaction in which there is a rapid increase of emitted light and the gradual decay |
| Flame photometry | measures excited atoms to determine concentration of Na+, K+, and Li+ |
| Fluorometry | Light is absorbed by the substance and then light of a shorter wavelength is emitted (fluoresced) |
| Nephelometry | Determines concentration by scattering of light at 90 degree angle |
| Atomic Absorption | measures concentration by absorption of electromagnetic radiation by atoms |
| Electrophoresis | Migration of charged solutes or particles in an electrical field |
| Potentiometry | Electrochemical cell consisting of two linked electrodes |
| Chromatography | Used to separate complex mixtures with a mobile phase and stationary phase |
| Electrical Impedence | Particles suspended in an electrolyte solution are made to pass through a small aperture through which an electrical current path has been established |
| Flow Cytometry | means of measuring certain physical and chemical characteristics of cells or particles as they travel in suspension one by one past a sensing point (laser light) |
| Photo-Optical Endpoint | Change in optical density of test sample indicates clot formation |
| Mechanical Endpoint Detection | Detects change in electrical conductivity indicates clot formation |
| Photometry | Measures light intensity without regard to wavelength |
| Turbidometry | a method for determining concentration of a substance in a solution by the degree of cloudiness |
| Mass Spectrophotometry | Substance is bombarded by electrons to form charged molecular ions and fragments. |
