Embedding is the process of enclosing tissue specimens in an embedding medium such as paraffin wax to support the specimen for sectioning. The choice of embedding medium depends on the type of tissue, microscope, and microtome being used. Common embedding mediums include paraffin wax, celloidin, resin, and gelatin. Paraffin wax is most widely used due to its hardness and ability to produce high quality sections. Proper orientation of the specimen in the embedding block is important for pathological examination and diagnosis.

The procedure for using a water bath is:
1. Fill the water bath container with clean water up to the desired level.
2. Turn the water bath on and set the thermostat to the desired temperature.
3. Allow the water to warm up until it reaches the set temperature.
4. Place the container holding the fluid you want to heat inside the water bath. The fluid will then be heated indirectly through contact with the heated water surrounding it, maintaining a constant temperature.

Laboratory Hazards, Accidents and Safety RulesTapeshwar Yadav
Injury, damage and loss by fire can be minimized when laboratory staff:
Understand how fires are caused and spread;
Reduce the risk of fire by following fire safety regulations at all times;
Know what to do if there is a fire in their laboratory;
Know how to use fire fighting equipment;
Know how to apply emergency First Aid, for burns.
Laboratory safety rules are a major aspect of every clinical lab.
Each student in clinical laboratory must follow specific safety rules and procedures.
This document discusses blood collection methods. It describes the three main types of blood collection: venous, capillary, and arterial. Venous blood collection is the most common, involving puncturing a vein with a needle and collecting blood into a tube or syringe. Capillary collection involves a small skin puncture to obtain a small blood sample, while arterial collection is rarely needed and involves puncturing an artery. The document outlines the equipment, procedures, and safety measures for performing venipuncture. It also discusses different types of blood collection tubes and their uses based on the additive used.
The document discusses a haemocytometer, which is an instrument used to count blood cells. It has a special slide with ruled areas divided into squares under a cover glass, allowing cells in a small measured volume to be counted manually. Blood is diluted and pipetted into the chamber. Cells are counted within the squares using a microscope at different magnifications for different cell types. Factors like dilution, counting technique, and chamber quality can introduce errors. The haemocytometer allows standardized counting of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets in hematology labs.
This document provides information about centrifuges. It discusses the history of centrifuges, including their invention by Benjamin Robins in the 18th century. It defines a centrifuge as a device that separates heavier and lighter particles through centrifugal force. The document describes the main components and working principles of centrifuges, and discusses different types including fixed-angle, swinging head, continuous tubular, ultracentrifuges, hematocrit, and gas centrifuges. It also outlines common applications and safety procedures for operating centrifuges.
This document discusses total leukocyte count (TLC), also known as the total white blood cell count. It provides the normal ranges for TLC across different age groups. Leukocytosis is defined as a TLC over 11,000/mm3 and can occur due to physiological or pathological factors. Leukopenia is a TLC below 4,000 cells/cu.mm and can be caused by various infections, bone marrow depression, or drugs. The document then describes the manual hemocytometer method for counting white blood cells using a Neubauer chamber, as well as an electronic method using automated analyzers.
This document discusses different types of glassware used in laboratories, including non-volumetric glassware like beakers and flasks, and volumetric glassware like graduated cylinders and volumetric flasks. It describes the purposes and proper uses of pipettes, including volumetric, Mohr, and serological pipettes as well as mechanical pipettes. The document provides guidance on correctly reading pipette volumes and using pipettes and glassware properly.
Blood can be obtained through venous or capillary puncture for laboratory testing. Venous puncture from the median cubital vein is preferred as it provides a large, undiluted sample for many tests. The procedure involves selecting and cleaning the vein site, inserting the needle at a 30-35 degree angle, collecting blood in an anticoagulant tube, and applying pressure to stop bleeding. Capillary puncture from the finger or heel is an alternative for small volume tests, but carries a higher risk of erroneous results due to dilution or contamination of the sample. Proper patient identification, aseptic technique, and disposal of sharps are important to perform both procedures safely.

Gemma Wean- Nutritional solution for Artemiasmuskaan0008
GEMMA Wean is a high end larval co-feeding and weaning diet aimed at Artemia optimisation and is fortified with a high level of proteins and phospholipids. GEMMA Wean provides the early weaned juveniles with dedicated fish nutrition and is an ideal follow on from GEMMA Micro or Artemia.
GEMMA Wean has an optimised nutritional balance and physical quality so that it flows more freely and spreads readily on the water surface. The balance of phospholipid classes to- gether with the production technology based on a low temperature extrusion process improve the physical aspect of the pellets while still retaining the high phospholipid content.
GEMMA Wean is available in 0.1mm, 0.2mm and 0.3mm. There is also a 0.5mm micro-pellet, GEMMA Wean Diamond, which covers the early nursery stage from post-weaning to pre-growing.
