Q1= A first morning specimen would be requested to confirm
which of the following?
a.
Diabetes insipidus
b.
Fanconi’s syndrome
c.
Urinary tract infection
d. Orthostatic proteinuria
ANS- D
Orthostatic or
postural proteinuria is characterized by an elevated protein while a person is
in the upright (standing) position and normal protein excretion in a sitting or
reclined position
Q2=Which of the following is the principle of the reagent strip
test for pH?
a. A double indicator reaction
b. The protein error of indicators
c. The diazo reaction
d. A dye-binding reaction
ans=A
The method of
detection includes two indicators,
methyl red and bromothymol blue,
which produce a color change from blue or blue-green to
yellow
Q3= CSF lactate is used to verify cases of which of the following?
a. Multiple sclerosis
b. Bacterial meningitis
c. Reye’s syndrome
d. Tertiary syphilis
Ans=B
In cerebrospinal
fluid, increase in lactate can be associated with
bacterial, fungal,
and tubercular meningitis at levels greater than 25 mg/dL.
Q4= The most important sugar found in semen is ______________.
a. Sucrose
b. Maltose
c. Fructose
d. Lactose
Ans= . c
. Fructose comprises 99% of normal reducing sugar in semen;
with normal levels of semen, fructose is 13
mmols or greater per ejaculate
Q5= Which of the following can decrease CSF protein?
a. Fluid leakage
b. Meningitis
c. Multiple sclerosis
d. Hemorrhage
Ans= A
Low protein values in cerebrospinal fluid indicate the
central nervous system is leaking fluid.
