A cytocentrifuge is an excellent method for preparing nonviscous fluids, because
A) it deposits cellular elements and microorganisms from the specimen onto the surface of a glass slide as a monolayer.
B) it concentrates the protein evenly throughout the slide surface.
C) the sediment is mixed with 70% albumin before spreading it on the surface of a slide.
D) the cytocentrifuge not only spreads the specimen over the surface of a slide but also stains the specimen.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A cytocentrifuge is specifically designed to deposit cellular elements and microorganisms from the specimen onto the surface of a glass slide as a monolayer. This allows for easy visualization and examination under a microscope. Concentrating the protein evenly throughout the slide surface, mixing the sediment with 70% albumin before spreading it on the slide, and staining the specimen are not functions of the cytocentrifuge.
