When a tube of blood is centrifuged, erythrocytes end up on the bottom of the tube.
Plasma? Serum?
no idea thats what im searching for /:
Plasma, buffy coat, and red blood cells are the three layers of centrifuged blood. Plasma is the top layer consisting of water, electrolytes, and proteins. The buffy coat is the thin middle layer containing white blood cells and platelets. Red blood cells form the bottom layer.
Mononuclear cells
Blood serum can be obtained by collecting a blood sample from a vein and allowing it to clot. The sample is then centrifuged to separate the serum from the rest of the blood components. Serum is the liquid component of blood obtained after clotting, which does not contain cells or clotting factors.
yes. Blood separates into, from top to bottom, plasma, white blood cells/ platelets, and red blood cells.
No, it is not recommended to remix centrifuged whole blood specimens as it can affect the accuracy of test results due to potential cell lysis and mixing of plasma/serum with cellular components. It is best to follow the specific instructions provided for each test to ensure accurate results.
Clotted blood is normally obtained from a specimen of venous blood which has been allowed to clot by standing for 30 minutes. The resulting specimen is usually centrifuged to separate the clotted red blood cells from the serum.
The only lab that is centrifuged is the capsule for training pilots and astronauts to handle high "G" forces.
Your question is unclear - the liquid which carries red and white blood cells and platelets is blood. These cells are the solid component of blood, which separates from the liquid part (plasma) when centrifuged.
