4. What laboratory test could we use to confirm the isotypes of anti-SRBC antibody? (10 marks) The laboratory test that we could use to confirm the isotypes of anti-SRBC antibody is Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA). ELISA is an immunological test that is used for detection and quantification of antibodies, antigens, peptides and hormones. ELISA uses an enzyme–labelled antibody and substrate to indicate the present of antibodies or antigens if a colour change is observed. There are 4 types

the exconjugant received the gene to make supD tRNA that was successful in suppressing the STOP codon UAG with the amino acid serine. The substitution of serine in the amino acid chain does not harm the protein function or structure. Therefore, the bacteria is successful in utilizing lactose properly. • For exconjugants from mating E there was no growth on min+lac and Mackonkeys had white colonies. So supE which used glutamine to suppress the UAG nonsense mutation was not successful in creating a protein

may be drawn to help control the growth of bacteria by monitoring the iron level. Iron is used by bacteria, fungi, and protozoa for growth and proliferation. Monitoring INR is vital due to the moderate-high risk of patient bleeding due to heparin levels being too high. This patient has a positive history for urinary tract infections; thus monitoring urinalysis specimen testing will provide information such as the level, type, and relative amount of bacteria or virus creating the UTI and what it is
