Hemoglobin

There have been discoveries of haplotypes for distinct region specific mutations of the HbS genes. The four African Haplotypes include the Senegal, Benin, Bantu, and Cameroon haplotypes. There has also been one discovery of an Asian haplotype referred to as the Arab-Indian haplotype [1]. The occurrence of these haplotypes indicates that the increase in sickle cell anemia is related to the incidence of malaria in the surrounding regions [8]. Evidence that supports the link between the…

the metabolic waste product away from the cells. To ensure the supply of oxygen needed by our organs and tissues, there are four important steps: 1. The oxygen must be transferred from our lungs into the blood plasma 2. The oxygen is stored on the hemoglobin in the red cells 3. The oxygen is transported to our body cells via circulation. 4. The oxygen is released from the blood to the cells. [the clinical use of blood, general medicine] Blood also has other functions like: • immunological…

the size of the red blood cell and stated as the complete blood count in which the hemoglobin values are counted as well (Charles Patrick Davis, 2016). “The standard values of hematocrit for adult women are from 38%-46%” (Charles Patrick Davis, 2016) and “for the hemoglobin (altitude dependent) for a female based on conventional units are 12-16g/dL” (Jarvis, 2013). Mrs. Jones’ value for hematocrit is 30%, and hemoglobin is 10g/dL. Mrs. Jones’ lower…

known hemolysins, which a play significant role for destroy the red blood cells. In this experiment, we will measure the effect of bacterial cytotoxins on red blood cells by spectrophotometer, which measures the amount of hemoglobin release for RBCs. For measure the amount of hemoglobin released from red blood cells in this lab, we should flow three principle ways: prepper RBCs, prepper the P.aerginosa, and finally prepare the co-culture for RBc with bacteria. The first stage was prepared…

Systems Relationship Assignment 1. Muscular System and Skeletal System The muscular system is dependent on the skeletal system to provide blood cells to the muscles. The blood cells contain oxygen which is converted into ATP during cellular respiration. The ATP is needed to perform daily tasks like walking. The skeletal system supports the striated muscle which allows movement to occur. The striated muscle connects the bone and muscle together. The skeletal system relies on the muscular system…

enthusiasm to play gulf in the middle of season. While playing golf in a high mountainous area Ms. A became light headed and had to cut the game short and so they took her to be evaluated in the emergency clinic. When her labs resulted they showed: hemoglobin 8g/dl, hematocrit 32% (which are boarder line critically low), erythrocyte count = 3.1 x 10/mm, red blood cell smear showed microcytic and hypochromic cells (small red blood cell), and Reticulocyte count = 1.5% (low end of normal). All the…

from the lungs travels to the arteries and around the body, and then this blood is carried back through veins to be reoxygenated. Hemoglobin, a vital protein present in blood, binds to oxygen as you breathe air in. The oxygen in the air enters the alveoli and is picked up by the hemoglobin in the blood as it flows through the alveoli’s capillaries, and the hemoglobin then carries the oxygen throughout the body where it is deposited in various cells and picked up later. This vital-to-life process…

(CBC) test which provides the values of blood components. Normal children leukocyte average is 5,000-10,000 mm3, while red blood cells average is 3.8-6.0 x 1012/L, and Hemoglobin level is 95-205 g/L. The test measure also Hematocrit, and platelets. For acute lymphoid leukemia patients, the results change. The red blood cells, hemoglobin levels, hematocrit, and platelets show significant decrease. In contrast, the leukocytes count show abnormal diminution. The follow up procedures are Bone marrow…

gynecological examination, the vulva was bloody, blood clots within the vagina, cervix smooth and closed no active bleeding and the uterus such as the size of 2 months pregnant, more than accepted. The estimated blood loss at admission about 1000ml, Hemoglobin 94g / l , white blood cell count 19.45 x 10 ^ 9 / L, with normal…
