heparinized

The source of the infection was contaminated heparinized saline flushes being used with cancer patients.

After each use, a heparin lock is made by injecting a small amount of heparinized saline (an anticoagulant) into the device.

Leukocytes from healthy donors were isolated by dextran sedimentation from heparinized peripheral blood.

Occasionally, blood drawn from heparinized patients does not fully clot, resulting in a visible fibrinogen band between the beta and gamma globulins.

Bellows palpated the radial artery and then jammed the needle of the heparinized syringe into the skin on the thumb side of Berman's wrist.

Processing of samples Maternal blood samples were collected by jugular venipuncture on the day of slaughter, placed into heparinized tubes, and mixed by inverting.

Approximately 20 mL of heparinized venous blood is collected at 30 and 60 minutes after the synthetic ACTH injection to measure cortisol levels.

In addition, the arterial and venous lines should be flushed continuously with heparinized saline or intermittently with heparinized blood from the circuit.

The blood was collected in a heparinized (400 U) tube and incubated at 38 C. Thirty minutes after mild hemorrhagic hypotension, all the baseline variables were again measured.

Hematocrit and nitric oxide metabolite measurements Heparinized blood 100 μl was placed in capillary tubes and hematocrit determined by standard techniques [ 9].

He developed new heparinized biomedical surfaces based on poly (vinyl alcohol) and hydroxylated SBS-block copolymer systems (with P. Wong)

"Two important points: you have to use a heparinized syringe to keep the blood from clotting, and you have to keep pressure over the site for five minutes after the stick.

In response to his inquiry he was handed a tray with a heparinized syringe and directed to one of the recovery room beds to the left, opposite the door through which they had entered.

Preparation of mononuclear cells Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from heparinized blood of healthy adult volunteers by density sedimentation using ficoll/isopaque.

The packed cell volume (PCV) can be determined by centrifuging heparinized blood in a capillary tube (also known as a microhematocrit tube) at 10,000 RPM for five minutes.

Blood was collected in heparinized tubes from a small tail nick, refrigerated at 4 C after collection, centrifuged within 2 hours, and plasma frozen at -50 C until hormone assay was performed.

Blood was collected in heparinized Vacutainer tubes or heparinized CPT tubes (BD Vacutainer, Franklin Lakes, NJ).

During the surgical procedure the blood soaked sponges are collected and placed in a sterile basin by the surgical team, sterile heparinized saline is added to the basin to prevent clotting and facilitate the release of red cells.

Flow cytometry Heparinized venous blood from RA patients, SLE patients and healthy control individuals was collected, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells were freshly isolated by Ficoll-Hypaque (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech, Uppsala, Sweden).
