MLS ASCP EXAM QUESTIONS ANDANSWERS WITH SOLUTIONS 2024
c antigen is most common in blacks and whites; anti-c would be most common reactive - ANSWER Rh
antibodies show enhanced reactivity with enzyme pretreated cells. The M and Fya antigens are cleaved
from enzyme pretreated cells and therefore there would be no reaction between enzyme pretreated
cells and serum containing anti-M or anti-Fya. The incidence of the c antigen is 80% in whites and 96% in
blacks. The incidence of the E antigen is 29% in whites and 22% in blacks. Increased reactivity with
enzyme pretreated cells and incompatible results with 8 of 10 donor units is most likely due to anti-c.

differentiating the two.
what is composed of DNA? - ANSWER howell jolly bodies
what falsely increases ESR - ANSWER vibration, tilting of tube, higher temps, >1 hr test time, improper
mixing of blood, improper dilution
factors decreasing ESR - ANSWER Polycythemia, Microcytosis (Hb C), Sickle cells, spherocytes, Anti-
inflammatory medications, Hypogammaglobulinemia, Hypofibrinogenemia (DIC), High WBC count,
Hyperviscosity
Factors increasing ESR - ANSWER Anemia, Macrocytosis, Female gender, Age >50 years, Obesity,
Pregnancy, Hypercholesterolemia, cancer, multiple myeloma, rouleaux, infections, inflammation
, what falsely decreases ESR - ANSWER low blood/ room temps, air bubbles, tests <1 hr, improper mixing
of blood, improper dilution
lactic acid collection - ANSWER separate from serum and put on ice
coefficient of variation - ANSWER (standard deviation/ mean) X 100

detecting pH. The change in pH is measured by an internal pH sensor, which is proportional to the
carbon dioxide level.
