  • This video shows specimens being put into a graduated conical vial in order to get a great pellet during gentrification. The specimens are then centrifuged and viewed microscopically using the special urine slide.
    I did not like the video for the microscopic analysis of these urines. Unfortunately I am still working out the kinks on how to best make videos on the microscopes. Here were the results:
    1 Had Calcium Oxalate crystals with less than 1 WBC, RBC, and Transitional Epithelial cells= Indicating a kidney stone
    2 Had amorphous urates identified by lack of structure and being soluble in NaOH, there were also 1 squamous per hpf, less than 1 transitional epithelial cells, and rare calcium oxalate crystals= kidney stone also possible
    3 Had a pH of 9, many bacteria, 4 squamous epithelial cells per hpf, and triple phosphate crystals ie. coffin lid structures= old urine with need for recollection

    Haha! I liked the phrase, 'You get what you get, and you don't throw a fit!" 😆

    Fascinating stuff. Makes me want to go into medical laboratory.

    Thank foryour help

    Beautifully explained and shown. So when you are getting the urine into those wells it should be sucked in automatically. My hand would have shaken. Thank you.

    Wow this was a great video, thank you. I am a lehperson without a doctor and was looking into buying a microscope to analyze my urine, which led me to the centrifuge part and then I looked for a video to show me how the centrifuge works and what I'd need (1,800 rpm for 10 minutes, thank you lol) but I was glued to the screen for this whole video. I would have liked to see the specimens while you spoke but I read in the description that you weren't happy with the video so I understand. Thankyou <3

    Where can those (ten window) (special urine slides) be purchased ?

  • @ugochiamulu213

    Could this also be called 'wet mount technique for urine'?

    Leukocytes seem to be measured as “ca cells/ul” (as noted on the dip stick keys). What does the “ca” stand for? Cancer??? Can these decrease without having cancer?

    I have a question for you if you just clarify for me. Do you still keep the condenser lower for the 40x or you raise it?

  • @beckyn35

    when do you grade color, before centrifugation or do you grade the supernatant? Thanks
