Light bluec. Purple or brownd. Red or pinkAnswer: d) Red or pinkIn Gram staining, a primary stain stains gram-positive organisms purple and a counterstain stains the gram-negative organisms red or pink. You can remember this by "keeping your P's together" Purple is Positive. 4) HEMATOLOGYWhich anticoagulant is used for red blood cell counts?a. EDTAb. Heparinc. Sodium citrated. Sodium fluorideAnswer: a) EDTAEDTA is the best anticoagulant for preserving the morphology of blood cells. For this reason, red blood cell counts are collected in a tube containing EDTA. 5) IMMUNOLOGYWhich leukocytes are nongranular?a. Basophils and mast cellsb. Basophils and monocytesc. Lymphocytes and monocytesd. Neutrophils and eosinophilsAnswer: c) Lymphocytes and monocytesThe nongranular leukocytes are lymphocytes and monocytes. These leukocytes have no obvious granules in their cytoplasm.The granular leukocytes are neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, and mast cells. 6) IMMUNOHEMATOLOGYWhich of these tests can detect heterophile antibodies?a. ABO typingb. Indirect antiglobulin testc. Karyotype testd. Mononucleosis testAnswer: d) Mononucleosis testThe mononucleosis test detects heterophile antibodies produced in response to an Epstein-Barr virus infection, the virus that causes mononucleosis.

Prepare for the MT(AAB) Basic Knowledge Examination with this unofficial book of practice questions. This book contains 240 multiple-choice questions to practice with, all carefully designed to reflect the real MT(AAB) Basic Knowledge Examination. Included in this book: - 240 multiple-choice questions, with answers and explanations To give you an idea of what the questions are like, below are five questions from the book: 1. The monitoring of laboratory processes to ensure the accuracy of test results is an aspect of: a) corporate complianceb) critical thinkingc) quality assuranced) risk managementAnswer: c) quality assurance 2. What do double rings on a pipette mean?a) The last drop must be blown outb) The pipette can hold 2 mLc) The pipette will deliver the measured amount of liquid only at 20°Cd) The volume is measured at this pointAnswer: a) The last drop must be blown outA pipette with two etched rings is a "blow-out" pipette. This means after you have drawn up and dispensed the liquid, you need to blow out the remaining liquid clinging to the pipette walls by blowing with a rubber bulb. 3. Which CLIA certificate allows laboratories to conduct moderate or high complexity tests before the laboratory is inspected and a final certificate is issued?a) Accreditationb) Compliancec) Registrationd) WaiverAnswer: c) RegistrationCertificates of Registration are issued to allow the laboratory to perform non-waived testing until the laboratory is surveyed. Once the laboratory is inspected and found in compliance, a final certificate of compliance or accreditation is issued. 4. Which of these is a CLIA waived test?a) Complete blood countb) Fecal occult blood testc) Immunoassayd) Peripheral smearAnswer: b) Fecal occult blood testCLIA waived tests are easy to perform and have a low risk of an incorrect result. They include fecal occult blood tests, urine pregnancy tests, blood glucose tests, and urine dipstick tests. 5. For data distributed normally, how many values are within two standard deviations from the mean?a) 50%b) 68%c) 83%d) 95%Answer: d) 95%For data distributed normally, 95% of data falls within two standard deviations of the mean.

Sample questions To give you an idea of what the questions are like, below are six questions from the book. 1) SAFE WORK PRACTICESA skin cut is an example of which link in the chain of infection?a. Infectious agentb. Mode of transmissionc. Portal of entryd. ReservoirAnswer: c) Portal of entryThe portal of entry is the method a pathogen uses to enter a susceptible host. Examples include the respiratory tract, blood, mucous membranes, and broken skin. 2) DATA AND SPECIMEN COLLECTION AND HANDLINGWhat is a neutrophil?a. A bacteria that prefers a neutral (pH 7) environmentb. A chemical with a neutral pHc. A type of coagulation factor in the bloodd. A type of white blood cellAnswer: d) A type of white blood cell 3) PRE-ANALYTICAL PROCEDURESA laboratory has an autoclave rule stating "Do not fill containers more than half full with liquids". If a lab technician has to prepare 220 ml of media for autoclaving, then which of these volume containers would be most appropriate?a. 200 mLb. 300 mLc. 400 mLd. 500 mLAnswer: d) 500 mL2 × 220 mL = 440 mL. This means only the 500 mL container can contain 220 mL without becoming more than half-full. 4) REAGENT PREPARATIONA lab technician is making a solution by combining 3 parts of a solute with 7 parts of water. How many millilitres of the solute and water are needed to make 100 mL of the solution?a. 7 mL of solute and 3 mL of waterb. 10 mL of solute and 70 mL of waterc. 30 mL of solute and 70 mL of waterd. 70 mL of solute and 30 mL of waterAnswer: c) 30 mL of solute and 70 mL of water3 + 7 is a total of 10 parts.Therefore, the amount of solute needed: 100 mL × 3/10 = 30 mLAmount of water needed: 100 mL × 7/10 = 70 mL 5) COMMUNICATION AND INTERACTIONWhat can be predicted when a team is highly cohesive?a. High member satisfactionb. High-performance resultsc. Positive performance normsd. Status congruityAnswer: a) High member satisfaction 6) QUALITY MANAGEMENTA control has a mean of 2.8 with a standard deviation of 0.3. This means 68% of the values should fall within a range of: a. 2.0-3.1b. 2.2-3.4c. 2.2-3.4d. 2.5-3.1Answer: d) 2.5-3.1In a normal distribution, 68% of values will fall within one standard deviation of the mean. One standard deviation here is 0.3. Therefore, to find the range of values that fall within one standard deviation, simply add and subtract 0.3 from the mean: 2.8 + 0.3 = 3.12.8 - 0.3 = 2.5Therefore the range for one standard deviation is 2.5-3.1.
