the IV catheter may come with a detachable cap for temporary occlusion of the catheter once it has cannulated the vessel. The stylet’s purpose is to puncture the vessel being cannulated and act as a guide to the advancement of the catheter. Once in place, the catheter is secured to the ...
(positive control) was dispensed. In wells E1 and F1, ten microliters of 1:20 diluted reference serum2 (negative control) were dispensed. In wells G1 and H1, 10 µl of 1:20 diluted reference serum3 (weak positive control) was dispensed. The remaining wells were then dispensed with 90...
